Applying Training Books to On-Field Practice

For hitters, pairing drills with NETS & TEES improves swing mechanics and consistency. Pitchers can translate lessons from pitching guides using specialized tools like PITCHING MACHINES, while fielding drills are enhanced with equipment in FIELD & TEAM.
