Power- when you said "stretch," could you of used the word "torque" and your same statement been true?
if so, i agree with you... IMO he stored about as much energy as he could in his body and held it for as long as possible waiting for that offspeed pitch to get to him, so he could "release" it....

Yes! Torque between upper and lower body. No way a linear hitter could have made this swing. There has to still be weight on the back leg to "hold" this stretch.
