QWhen a batter after 2 Ks looking in a game goes up for his 3rd at-bat (assuming you haven't benched him already), what do you say to him before he steps in the box? What do you say to him between each pitch? A hint: saying "whatever you do don't strike out" won't help.

I would look for signs of lack of confidence in his swing first. Maybe the way he steps into the box, or how he eyeballs the pitch or how quick/slow he is ready to launch. question is - does yelling from 3rd base box do anything?
