How to Grip Bat for Right Handed Hitters

Hi, my name is Juan Carlos with Expert Village. In this segment I'm going to teach you how to be a switch hitter. In this segment we're going to talk about bat grip on the right side of the plate. Now always want to hold the bat with your control hand as your left, you power hand as your right but gripping the bat with the knuckles aligned as so. Doing so you'll be able to have a much straight swing as you come through the zone. So it's very important that you align these knuckles here and not these knuckles here because of this, you'll be able to roll over and you'll have an effective swing. So when having a more effective swing and align knuckles as so, so when you snap the wrist you have a much more effective swing going through the zone.
