This is why I don’t think it’s a good idea to tell hitters that they need a bath bat up through the ball. Even if you emphasize slightly up. More times than not it creates just what you said. The hitter swings becomes to long, they drop back side, loose the barrel, etc... Every hitter is different of course. But for most it becomes “feel vs real”. You have to tell them slightly different than what you actually want. JMO of course. And what I’ve learned and witnessed over the years.
