Phase minus trunk movements in preparation
R arm abducting L arm adducting Both arm movements going
away from pitcher Body slightly leaning backwards
in preparation for pitch

Recovery Stage
Most batters step out of the batters box following their swing.
They do not have a specific recovery stage besides getting themselves ready to go back in the preparatory stage.
If the batters make contact will place the bat on the ground and begin to run.
