I think it was 2007 that Don Slaught introduced the new grip and has since proved it in test labs at UCLA. I then started trying to swing the bat by placing the bat in my bottom hand where the fingers join at the palm of the hand and then placing the bat in my top hand about ½ to ¾ of inch away from the line where the fingers join the palm of the hand towards the thumb.
When I looked at my grip it was the top hand door knocker knuckles lining up with the face knuckles of the bottom hand.
Bold above ..... what you describe here is having the knuckle orientation be a 'result' of directing efforts elsewhere.
This is what I mean when I say that one's knuckle orientation should be a 'result' of efforts placed elsewhere.
