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 tell you how to hold the bat from the left side. Very important you top hands is always the power hand and that should be held with your left hand from the left side of the plate. Your right hand is the control hand and then it should be held together with your knuckles aligned from the left side. You want to hold the bat up elbow up hands up in the zone as the bat flat you don't want to be pointing in the air, usually if you point it in the air the first thing you do is as you come through the zone you will drop the wrist. The easier way to do it is to hold the bat at an angle as you come through the zone it will be much more effective swing from the left side.
