Hand position


Posted by: Bondo () on Fri Mar 24 10:09:35 2006


Anyone notice that the old-timers Ruth, Gehrig, Dimaggio, Williams, Mantle, Mays, Aaron all carried their hands low next to their ribs during their stance? I notice during the WBC, Japanese batters tend to keep their hands out front in above home plate. Modern MLB players tend to keep their hands at least shoulder high. If we're to follow Williams and these superstars, shy don't we teach players to start their hands low anymore?
