The Front Toss Drill develops rhythm, timing, balance, and swing sequence. The picture shows the hitter of the ball, holds it back, and then delivers it. By showing the ball and pulling it back, it allows the hitter to work on his rhythm and his timing.
We would the hitter to have his front foot on the ground when the ball is halfway to him. This gives him a balanced strength positioning to hit front.
This drill can provide work on pitches inside, outside, and down the middle. It can also help hitters with pitches at various heights.
This drill is to follow the dry drill and the T-drills because it allows the hitter to develop head swing in sequence.
In a team setting, it is recommended that each hitter get 25 swings with this drill, with no more than 10 swings at a time.
