When looking to solve a baseball hitting problem, always look for the easiest "fix" first. Here is a list of some possible solutions if you are swinging late and not catching up to the pitch:
1. Make sure you are not using a bat that is too heavy for you. Like I said, we look for the easiest solution first.
2. Make sure you are loading up early enough and giving yourself enough time to get the bat into the hitting zone. You never want to load up late so if needed, load up earlier. I've seen many 10 to 12 year olds going back toward the catcher when the pitch is already on its way. This makes baseball hitting impossible. Watch for this with younger players. I've seen it many, many times.
3. Many youngsters in particular, have the bad habit of loading up twice. You go back once, not twice. They load up once and then they make the common mistake of loading up a little bit more. You can't be going back toward the catcher when the pitch is on its way. It's similar to what we mentioned above, but it's not loading up late, it's actually loading up twice.
4. You are possibly taking too long a route to the ball. Be more direct when going from point A, where you are "loaded up," to point B, where you make contact. The first movement after you are loaded up should be down toward the ball and the bat should level out only at the point of contact. It definitely makes my top five list of baseball tips on hitting! Many of the weaker baseball hitters at all levels of play have the bat parallel to the ground at the beginning of the baseball swing and this is wrong.
5. Another possibility for being late is the bottom of the knob of the bat is facing toward the catcher. This will cause the bat to have to travel a much greater distance to get to the ball and make you late on your swing. Or possibly the bat is wrapped too far around your head. Again, the bat will have to travel too far and you will be late on the pitch. Maybe the bat is being held too much straight up and down. If you are doing this, try a compromise of half way in between straight up and down and parallel to the ground.
6. When swinging,

7. Maybe you are gripping the bat too tightly. It's a known fact that you can swing the bat more efficiently and quicker by not gripping it too tightly.
In summary, there are two things I would look for right off the bat,

One of the best baseball tips on hitting you will ever hear is that you go from point A, where you are loaded up, to point B,
