A Patented Baseball/ Softball Swing Training aid. Teaches feel of proper swing path through visual feedback. Eliminates "Casting" and trains hitters to stay inside the ball. Players will instantly FEEL proper swing mechanics and SEE where the ball is going . Continued use of this product will TRAIN muscles to repeat the proper FEEL of keeping the barrel in the zone. See Instant results. All ages and skill level. Will fit any size bat.Two common swing flaws: The barrel is IN and OUT of the zone in which the hitter works across his body and across the plate.With the LDPT attached the hitter will see the ball launch to the pull side.To launch the ball up the middle he will have to correct the swing path to obtain the desired trajectory.The path is long: The hitter drops (loses the barrel) early and either drags the bat across the plate or swings up through the ball. With the LDPT attached the ball will launch up or to the open side.To launch the ball up the middle he will have to correct the swing path to obtain the desired trajectory.Visually seeing the trajectory of the ball enables the hitter to FEEL how their bat is working through the zone and how to visually correct it.

The device that he uses that Cliff Floyd didn't know the name of is called the Line Drive Pro.
C. Trent wrote about it in one of his stories about Aquino last week.
> The Line Drive Pro is a piece of plastic that slips onto a baseball bat and more or less throws a tennis ball, like a dog toy. But the ingenious part of the tool, developed by Pirates assistant hitting coach and former Reds pinch-hitter Jacob Cruz, is that for it to work, the swing has to be just right.

> Ecker and Aquino worked with the Line Drive Pro ahead of the game to remind him where his swing needs to be. The first couple of times the ball fell out before he completed his swing, but then he got several in just the right sweet spot, more or less throwing the ball to center field. Hours later, that’s where his first hit went. After the game, Ecker had side-by-side video lined up of Aquino’s pregame drill and his single — the swings were identical.
