Secondly, I do not think the swings are mutually exclusive, and never insinuated so. I believe they have nuances that make them different. Most baseball players lean back at contact. Softball players do not. Well, when you can't debate, obfuscate! I never said she didn't have enough extension. I said that grip has a tendency to limit extension (cause the top had to roll early). When the back elbow gets to the hip, where is the bat head? You release there, and the swing covers just as much of the zone as launching the bat head. It is just shorter, compact, more controlled, and does not commit the bat head early. It also keeps the wrists loaded, and launching can not maintain these positives.
In summation, don't obfuscate the points. It will make you look smarter.
I'm interested in your description of baseball players leaning back at contact and softball players not doing that.
Why are baseball and softball hitters different?
