Notice the different stride locations. Many elite hitters change their stride based off the particular pitch they’re looking for. They’re willing to take a perfectly good strike on the inside corner, to attack a curveball on the outside corner and are intentionally stepping slightly that way. Oklahoma’s Jocelyn Alo does this here. She normally steps open like the video on the left.

While this IS just a still photo of the hitter there are a few common causes for getting to this position: #1 Not being slow to fast. If a hitter doesn’t have a good front shou
