The nits need picked just as Sandman picked mine. Otherwise statements offer too many meanings.

Hey, you read the comments with your expectation. I typed them another way.

And I really don't mean to just "pick nits". Words are just words sometimes, so they need to be picked at until ambiguity is removed.

No hard feelings; just searching for clarity.

Granted, I prefer to stay light in discussions there are enough jerks in the world without increasing their number by what I say, I certainly don't want to come off as a jerk.

I agree that definitions are very important, Gwynn said allot in his assessment of Bonds swing. Any number of these can be misunderstood if someone has a different definition.

Don't get me started on Gwynn's analysis of Bonds swing.

C'mon Teach!

Put together a nice little voice-over over his voice-over! :-D

I sort of agree but can you imagine if he said what really happened for the TV audience.

" Now watch Barry pump and draw his hands in toward his body by letting the bat go vertical. This creates a time delay between Barry's hips opening and the bat getting back on the plane of the pitch. It also sets up a great inside /out move of the bat knob that will result in angular displacement.
Now Barry's hips are moving around to RF and see the knob pointing to 3B. Boy! , Barry has executed the X- Factor stretch well and has stored energy into his torso and the balls only half the way home.
Pow there goes another into MacCoveys Cove"

Can you say that again for our listeners Tony?

Oh yeah, ahhhh....he pulls through with the bottom hand .

Thanks Tony!

Good post, buster.

This is much better Sandman.

LMAO Donny!!!

I find it hard to believe that Tony is describing the same image as is being shown.

Watching Bonds and Gwynn swing, about the only thing they have in common is that they are both using a bat.
