Lol..Wow youngster..you made my day (now if my back,elbow,knee and shoulder would get the message..)Good question. This is old 30fps, not the 60+fps you youngsters are used to seeing. The next frame he is past toe touch and is already swinging/turning.

Refer to Post #8.
FYI: Forearm, not elbow.
It's a simple leverage issue. The less flat the forearm is, the less leverage you have on the bat head. You want the 90 deg angle like Hank above at the start, then bring the elbow and bat head down in unison (to hip slot).
If you bring it down from a flat start, the bat head will be flat at the end. If you bring it down from halfway, the bat head can only travel halfway, then you have to muscle it the rest of the way (drag).
Good question. This is old 30fps, not the 60+fps you youngsters are used to seeing. The next frame he is past toe touch and is already swinging/turning.

Romero's free hands allows for driving this pitch up in the zone. She was definitely cheating for this pitch.

Dynamic posture to get to the high pitch
Hmmmm ... I don't know, if she was cheating, why start there and then adjust? Know what I mean? Looks like she's adjusting with the pitch to me.Or cheating the posture to cover the zone
Julray, I see her position allows her to come up and over.Hmmmm ... I don't know, if she was cheating, why start there and then adjust? Know what I mean? Looks like she's adjusting with the pitch to me.
I could be wrong, this is just what I see in this swing
