Revisit: Door-knocker-knuckle grip and back elbow position

[FiveFrameSwing]

The claim is that Alabama teaches lining up the door knocking knuckles ... ... ... the first Alabama clip I pulled up is of Jennifer Fenton ... ... ... Guess she didn't receive the memo.

Next Alabama hitter I pulled up was Jazlyn Lunceford. She didn't get the memo either.

Thanks, FFS. I especially appreciate the photo of Katelyn Boyd. First thing somebody is going to tell me when I point to the examples of Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Hank Aaron, Barry Bonds, A-Rod and Miguel Cabrera is that they are baseball players.

Edit - And the Alabama players.

Well, the third Alabama hitter I brought up was Amanda Locke .... and she didn't get the memo either.

Most hitters start with a staggered knucke alignment. At contact though, there are hitters whose knocking knuckles are aligned.
