abtmc writes "The dropped third strike decisions in youth baseball are driving me crazy. Here is the rule on dropped third strikes for baseball, which includes youth baseball unless your league has stated otherwise.

It doesn’t matter if you’re
the parent on the sidelines or if you’re actively involved in coaching youth
baseball, choosing good equipment for the serious little leaguer is always a
tedious proposition, especially when it comes to picking youth baseball bats. A number of factors have to be taken into
consideration when it comes to picking out a good bat. I have always recommended fitting the bat to
the child, not the other way around when choosing the right bat for youth baseball.

For over 120 years now, the
Louisville Slugger continues to be the most recognized in the baseball bat
industry. And the story of the
Louisville Slugger TPX Dynasty and ExoGrid for youth baseball players would never have come to pass if not in 1884, a 17
year old named John
A. "Bud" Hillerich. Bud’s
father, J.F. Hillerich, owned a woodworking shop in Louisville in the 1880’s. Bud had snuck away from work early one day
and went to see a baseball game in which Pete Browning of the Louisville
Eclipse, the local pro team, had been mired in a hitting slump.

Hitting a baseball is one of the toughest skills to learn, particularly for young, developing players. It takes practice, practice, practice to develop into a better hitter, so it’s really important that players get maximum benefits from every batting practice session.
I call it Quick Toss,
and it’s proven to be a excellent training and teaching drill that can
be used virtually anywhere from the ball park to the backyard. Unlike
soft toss that's a slow arching toss from the side, Quick Toss suspends
the ball directly over the plate and in the "proper hitting zone".

New Hitting Drill Makes Practice More Productive
jeff writes "By Terry Scheele
Hitting a baseball is one of the toughest skills to master. And equally tough to teach. So to help players maximize their abilities and develop into better hitters, it is important for coaches to make batting practice as highly productive as possible.
Traditional "soft toss" has always been a favorite of coaches and is a great timing drill. But I have discovered a far better method... "
