What did these hitters do differently that is outside of what HI promotes?

Post some gifs of them!
Only one I got is Gwynn
Watch his barrel......I'd say it's pretty high level...
I think all three are Elite! Tony G was a front foot hitter and swing the knob guy. Very few swings looked like that one. He actually pulled that ball. He was 5.5 hole hitter you know. I study him like crazy back in the day. I was always call a poor mans Tony G. Very poor and not close to as talented.

Gwynn ... swing the knob, not the barrel:
So was I. The thing with Epstein is that it's not a terrible place to start. Things Mike said generally lead me to believe that he kind of sees it, but he doesn't know how to teach it. My view on Jake's work is far more negative.
Don't mix up with what they say/said opposed to how they actually swung. Just saying.
Do you mean 'knob to the ball'?
No he didn't teach knob to the ball but swing the knob. Knob inside the ball. He was not a pull hitter.
