First, they help explain a certain aspect of the game, as for the correct way to hit, throw, pitch, and field. Second, players usually get a great number of repetitions in a short span. Third, for most baseball drills, a small area is all that is necessary to do them. Fourth, and most important, good baseball drills generally force the correct actions, leading to quicker improvement than would have been possible without the baseball drills.
