Re: knob to the ball


Posted by: jerry220 () on Sun Sep 4 16:33:25 2011


when I watch albert Pujols swing in slow motion, from the launch
position the knob of the bat is pointing in the direction of his rear
foot. Or the catcher feet,as he continues the swing the knob takes a
circular path and is pointing towards the lefty's batter box.As the
swing continues the knob advances into the lag position, where the
knob of the bat is eventually pointing at the on coming
baseball.Approaching contact the knob keeps going on its circular path
and is facing the dugout behind Pujols back .All of this happens so
fast you cant see it unless slowed down.BY pulling the knob to the
ball Pujols is taking a circular hand path. HE is keeping his front
arm connected to his body, and his rear arm goes from the tight v
position to the connected L position at contact.Once his front heel
goes down his head hardly moves and his body rotates under a
stationary head.HIS front knee firms up and his front shoulder rotates
backwards at contact. To me he looks like the perfect example of a
rotational swing. HE has hall of fame numbers already .And he does all
of this by trying to pull the knob to the ball?
