Ball flight tells the story. Early this fall, our BP and games revealed too many weak fly balls. We went back to what works: hit it low and hard. Our hitters bought in. Here’s what 8 weeks of offensive development produced. 🧵 1/7

We’re also hitting the ball harder. Team flip max: +3.9 mph Average exit velocity across our 3 tests: +1.1 mph Meaningful progress across the group. Now comes the fun part: using the data to individualize each hitter’s development. 🧵 6/7

“I won’t claim our testing is perfect or that a guy who tests well will hit .400 with 15+ HR (he might 😉). The goal was to test hitter ability and blend it with swing data. Now comes the fun part: our heavy individual development phase.” — Jake Vitale, DSU Hitting Coach 🧵 7/7
