Hey what's going on guys? Today I want to talk about some baseball tee drills. So really
any baseball tee drills that you can do off of a tee here this is great because you can
do these by yourself you don't really need anyone if you've got a tee then you're good
to go. So the first baseball tee drill that I really like is going to be the high tee.
If you're see can't go all the way up you might have to put it depending on how tall
you are you might have to put a bucket beneath it. I like to set this ball up just right
around nipple level or maybe a tiny bit lower and all you're going to work on, on this drill
is trying to hit line drive you don't want to get the barrel on top of this ball and
like tomma hawk it, chop it down instead what you want to do is let your front elbow lead
you up there and get your hands above that ball and try to hit a nice line drive through
the baseball. So this is the high tee drill right here just working on line drives right
up the middle or opposite field or even inside but that's what you're trying to work on getting
that front elbow up hands through the ball nice line drive.
This second baseball tee drill that you can do is going to be the basketball drill or
for today’s sake; the soccer ball drill all you're going to do is put your soccer
ball up if your soccer ball doesn't stay on your tee well which sometimes it doesn't if
you have one of those old rubber tees you can take a plunger stick the plunger upside
down now you've got a nice base to put your soccer ball or your basketball on top of.
You can see the wind is already blowing this ball off a little bit. So that would be optimal
if you have that but as you can see it still kind of works if you don't have a windy day,
if you’re in your garage or basement or something you can do the soccer ball drill
with a tee by yourself. So let me try to hit this before the wind knocks it over. You're
just going to try to hit this ball right up the middle - ohh it started falling off but
you get that idea. The main thing with this drill is that you're staying inside the ball
and really trying to drive through it because when you hit it you're going to feel a recoil
in your hands it's not like a baseball you're going to have a little bit of a recoil and
you really have to drive through that ball when you're hitting it's. So that's another
one of the great baseball tee drills. The next baseball tee drill that I really
like is going to be the front leg post drill also known as the Flamingo drill or I call
it the Flamingo drill. All you're going to do is get set up, nice tee height and what
you're going to do is really get a good leg drive into the pitch have a good body angle
but then you're going to hit into your front leg and actually bring this back leg up and
over so you're going to be finishing boom right like this, driving that back knee forward
but still hitting into the front leg so when I finish I'm still getting my weight pushed
back and landing backwards but I want a split second where my knee is coming forward and
I'm kind of leaning hanging up there for a minute as I do it. Let me show you one right
here; this is the front leg post drill or a.k.a. in the Flamingo drill. Alright!
Another one of the baseball tee drills and this is probably one of my favorite is the
Barry Larkin drill. This one you do need a partner for so I kind of lied in the beginning
of this video but you also need a tee that's why it's in the baseball tee drills video.
All we're going to do in this video is we can either do back toss with our partner our
front toss or 3:57 but were going to take this tee and set it up on the outside parts
of the plate. So it's going to be an outside strike not too high not too low maybe just
above the knees right here and what we’re going to do is get set up in our normal position
have or coach pitching inside balls to us and were going to be hitting these inside
balls up the middle or pull side. Now I should not hit this ball if I get a good inside pitchevery
once in a while your coach will throw it out and you might hit both balls but that's okay
that's coaches fault but if the coach is throwing good inside pitches you should not hit this
ball while you're swinging. Now here's the tricky part if your coach goes to throw it
and then doesn't throw it he gives you a fake - a deek; you want to go from your stride
oh he didn't throw it to hitting this ball to the opposite field. Now here's the tricky
part you don't want to have too much of a pause so you don't want to go; stride up,
nope he didn't throw it down here and then try to go again.You only get one stride and
you should try to keep your momentum going the whole time. So it should look like this
you take that split second to transfer your eyes and then you're swing goes. So you're
here- oh coach didn't throw it, swing, boom opposite feel line drive opposite field. Sorry
cameramen didn't mean to scare you there. Come on over to the next baseball tee drills
and this is the last one this is called the fence drill. The new and improved fence drill
because the old fence drill everyone knows when you put the bat up against your belly
and the fence and then you're just swinging and trying not to hit that fence but for this
video since this is the baseball tee drills video were adding two tees into this drill.
You can use one tee or two tees but you need at least one. What you're going to do is you're
going to set the ball up of this tee about 4 to 6 inches off the fence here obviously
you're trying not to cast your hands and get outside of this ball and get around it your
trying to stay short to it, long through it and hit a line drive straight down the fence.
Now if you want to add in the second tee you could put it back here about 3 feet away so
that for guys who get too long in the back if they get long back here they're going to
hit this tee. So you don't want to hit this tee or the fence and your goal is to hit this
ball line drive straight up the middle. So let's see if we can make that happen right
here. The new fence drill. Not bad, not as good as my first one today but I'll take it.
Up the middle then hit this tee; didn't hit the fence and hit that ball pretty much straight
I would've preferred the line drive but I'll take that all day long and that's what you’re
working on in that drill. Guys I hope you like this baseball tee drills
