How should you look at impact?
*Zach Watson - LSU Outfielder*
Zach Watson and the LSU Tigers had a year to remember. Going into the postseason as one of the hottest teams in the country, they were able to make a run at the CWS finals. The Tigers were an all-around good ball club, but there was one thing they could do from top to bottom: hit the baseball.
Watson was one of the Tigers who consistently made solid impact in at-bat after at-bat. The Impact position is the third of four parts to the swing. This is where all of your hard work pays off. "Palm up, palm down" is how eCoachBaseball's Chris Burke describes it. The head, hip, knee should all be lined up.
Just like Watson looks above, is how you should look on each and every swing!
