John Cohen's Batting Stance
Just saw this online & was appalled.
Jiminy Christmas, what is he doing up there?
I've never actually seen him hit & I don't believe I've ever seen someone attempt to hit like this before.

Short and quick to the ball

A little Will Clark with a dash of Justin Turner and some black magic.

Black Magic, the Holy Grail of 1980s high school baseball. If you could convince your parents to fork over the money, or spend all summer cutting grass or bagging groceries to get $130 to buy that beauty, you were the man.
Some swore by the Easton green. But, the feeling of that leather wrap grip with a little pine tar made you believe YOU could be Will Clark.
"After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""

My first bat was the green Easton. Loved it. Then played on a team
With a black magic in the bag. I switched and swung that bat through high school. The Easton "ultra light" came out (lighter than the green and black magic) but I stuck with the heavy weight black magic.

Starting stance is pretty irrelevant for the most part.

My Dad who was a huge baseball "wanna be Baseball Coach" use to preach, see it hit it!
I see many weird stances, but that's baseball. LOL

Gun has obviously never seen film of Rod Carew, Jose Cruz, or early George Brett when he was all hunched over.

Gun really likes Cohen. I have absolutely nothing against the guy & believe he's overall done a good job.
However, I knit pick all things MSU athletics & since he's the athletic director, I'm going to knit pick him.
Has nothing to do with what I think about Cohen. Jesus could be the MSU athletic director or head coach, & I'll rip him as well.

Okie Dokie, but I'd be real careful with Jesus!

Maybe I'm just too used to awkward stances.

One asterick = no text after title
two sarcastericks = sarcasm/tongue in cheek
three sarcastericks = snarky
four sarcastericks = like a double negative so no sarcasm
five sarcastericks = wanted to call the OP's mother a whore but couldn't come up with a clever way to do it.*****
