Stance Distance Check

• Hitter sets up in their normal spot in the batter’s box
• Hitter should hold the bat in their hands, with their elbows against their stomach, with the bat held out over the plate about waist high
• Hitter drops the bat straight down on the plate
• The barrel of the bat should cover the plate
• If the bat goes over the outside of the plate or does not touch the outside of the plate, the batter should move their stance away from or toward the plate
• This is the ideal distance the hitter should stand from the plate
