Griffey and Bonds are poster boys for sitting to hit.
Both patterns work.. Brett, rides his rear leg while resisting with his upper, while Bonds releases into both legs before whipping the barrel.
Griff, is another who falls into both legs.
Griffey and Bonds do not swing around their spine. They swing around their rear leg while turning the barrel. Different styles.
Standard answer. Yawn.
And before you claim that you can sit on any pitch - I can claim the same thing.
I see the same rear legged movement and TTB mechanics. You are getting hung up on styles.
Where do Bautista, Trout, Kinsler, Cruz, Cano, Carpenter, Ortiz, Cabrera, Altuve, Pujols fall? You don't get points for style - only results on the biggest stage.
Yes You have bought in and never felt it or else you would see it.. When you can't feel it call it style.. I can duplicate both patterns, but prefer the Bonds pattern...
