I get emails from hitters all the time asking for help with a common problem. It usually sounds something like this:
“I feel great hitting in practice, but once I’m in the game I continue to struggle. It’s so frustrating. Any advice?”
Today we are joined by former Astros and hitting guru, Chris Burke. Chris was a three time All American at the University of Tennessee, a 1st round draft pick by the Astros and hit one of the greatest post season walk off homeruns in the history of MLB.
Since his playing career has ended, he’s worked with hitters at every level and was nice enough to carve out a few minutes break down the two keys to being a great hitter and how to practice in order to make sure your practice swings are preparing you for the game.
