Re: Pull outside pitches

>>> Jack and BHL, I wish you two could hash out the comparisons and contrasts of your views on this subject. I think it would be enlightening to all. In the interest of having a serious discussion, though, I would request the webmaster to not allow the discussion to be interupted with side issues, insults, etc. It would be great for others to join in the dialog, but it would be helpful to the dialog for the webmaster to be very cautious in allowing posts that are even in the slightest sarcastic, irrelevant, mean-spirited, etc. Allowing one sarcastic comment to be posted results in someone else wanting to "get even". Let's just hash this thing out based on a relevant and respectful dialog.

Who goes first, Jack or BHL? <<<

Hi Jose

BHL and I have presented our views on this subject in great detail. Nothing new is being uncovered and nothing is gained by rehashing old views. The bottom line is what I stated in a post below. --- “BHL believes all hitters should be taught to pull all pitches. - I believe that although great hitters have mechanics that allow them to successfully pull outside pitches, the swing mechanics used by most hitters would breakdown when attempting to pull balls on the outer part of the plate.

I see nothing that can be gained by restating our known positions on pulling outside pitches. Therefore, unless something new is presented, I will not OK a post to this thread.
