Conservation of Angular Momentum. How “turning tight” benefits hitters. A rotating body with weight closer to its axis will rotate much faster than a rotating body with weight further away from its axis. Understanding this is a key component to higher exit velocity readings.

Turning tight, on plane, and on time. Notice the barrel direction in these videos. Bottom video the barrel is working downward towards the ball (misdirection) and how it “drags” behind his body turning. This creates a sense of being late although the body is turning on time. Top video the barrel works behind the ball and up through the pitch plane and enters the zone as his body is rotating (no drag).

Elite level swing patters generate linear force as well as rotational force. For years hitters were taught to “squish the bug” with their back foot(bottom video). This only applies rotational force to the swing. Elite hitters will drive the back knee linearly under their hips/torso creating a “weightless” back foot. (Top video). You will even see some hitters that have their back foot off the ground at contact which indicates they are utilizing tons of linear force at contact. The role of the entire back side is to be an engine for the swing and create force using the ground.
