I have a theory about this problem and I think the real culprit is not your shoulder so much as your top hand. It is dominating your swing and thus pulling your back shoulder down with it. Try one handed training swings with your bottom hand to improve its strength and role in your swing. Do the same with your top hand only so you can feel the path your bat should take to the ball. Do these drills off a tee to build consistency and muscle memory.
Coming from a former D1 ball player, the best way the resolve this problem is to do tee work. Place the tee on the black or the outermost part of the plate and swing away until you fix the problem. Move the ball up and down the zone to ensure you don’t dip your shoulder during any of the swings. The toughest pitch to hit when you dip your shoulder is the outside and up pitch. Exaggerate the placement of the ball even beyond the plate and above the strike zone. Top hand is essential for the outside pitches as is keeping your back shoulder firm and consistent. Hope this helps, good luck!
Use a batting tee to refine your swing. Do it a lot to develop muscle memory. This will also improve your hand-eye coordination and develop excellent arm strength.
You may have to bring it up further, in an exaggerated way, when you are in your stance. If you are left handed, left-handers have that happen a lot. They really have to fight it.
try practicing at a batting cage or a hitaway or just a tee. just work on it .
