all balls are hit out front but kite is right that the high one should be hit out front a little more.

that swing is basically a swing around the shoulder (actually a little more complicated because the spine is another fulcrum so it is going around the body too but lets ignore that for now).

so the more up the ball is the more you have to hit out front to stay on the arc. the low ball is still hit out front but not as much as the high ball.
