Re: Unfinished Business (Jack Mankin)

>>> Hi again J.M

I posted a message under the subject: RISE IN MLB BATTING STATS on Jan. 20 related to info in a previous posting by you that was addressed to me. In my Jan. 20 message I asked some questions related to Williams and also supplied information about his vertical held bat that you seemed to be unaware of.

Since I did not receive a reply from you I am uncertain whether you saw my posting. If you don't care to respond now to the information within that posting I will understand, but I would appreciate your acknowledgement that you saw or didn't see the Jan. 20 posting.<<<

Hi Jude

In your Jan. 20 post you stated , “THG has posted a video photage of Williams. Have you checked it? The part that is captioned Williams says goodby has a picture of him standing bareheadedatthe plate with the bat slanted sharply behind him. As you know,Wlliams believed that the bat plane had to match the downward plane of the pitch. To me Williams' bat always seem to dip behind him more than any player I ever seen. I even think I saw somewhere where the bat was dipped so much that the wrist bone of his lead hand was pointed up so that it looked like it was in a supinating position. What is your opinion of this?”

In order to give you an informed opinion on your question, I wanted to review notes I made regarding Ted’s mechanics in general and his swing plane in particular. But since you require a more immediate response, I will just say I am not sure and let go at that.
