Low-Pitch Drill Since pitchers often throw a lot of knee-high balls, it is important to be able to focus on the low pitch. First, take a batting tee and set it on the outside part of the plate (low, outside pitch). You should flex both knees slightly in order to go down and get the ball. Once the swing is complete, continue your follow-through and then stop and kneel down so that your back knee is lightly touching the ground. If you cannot touch your knee to the ground, you were probably not in a good position to hit. Next, set the tee in the middle of the plate (low, across the plate). Again, flex your knees and attempt to hit the ball up the middle. As before, continue through your swing and check your balance with your knee on the ground. Finally, put the tee on the inside of the plate (low, inside pitch). To hit this type of pitch, keep your head down, aim for the inside part of the ball and hit a line drive. Again, continue through your swing and check your balance with your knee slightly touching the ground.
