david wright and pujols

David Wright and Albert Pujols both have similar loads. The both turn the front toe in instead of striding. The one thing I noticed is that in David Wrights load, before he brings the front toe up and turns it in, he takes a small step forward, and then does it. But Pujols just does it right away with no stride? Does anyone know what the purpose of taking the small stride may be?
