Salome's stance belies sweet swing
Huntsville Stars catcher Angel Salome cringes when he sees video of himself at the plate.
Head up, foot pointing toward third base - he seems a mechanical disaster. Yet from those flawed fundamentals comes a hitter chasing the Southern League batting title.
"When they take pictures of me, I'm like, 'Oh my God, what am I doing up there?' " Salome said. "To be honest with you, I don't know how I manage to hit the ball sometimes. I'm natural."
This article should be of particular interest to dixie, who had some concerns about Salome's stance when he saw the Stars play earlier this year.
