March 8, 200521 yr Unfortunately Frank's swing puts alot of weight on his front leg so his left calf is a pretty big problem. I hope he can get the strength built up there in time.

March 11, 200521 yr That is badass! I love the coloring. BTW, how is Carl not blinded by looking up at the sun?
March 12, 200521 yr The smile on Frank's face is awesome. For some of you more medically inclined people....for a right handed batter which calf would be more important in generating a swing? I would tend to think the right but I may be mixed up.

For some of you more medically inclined people....for a right handed batter which calf would be more important in generating a swing? I would tend to think the right but I may be mixed up. It's his left leg, his swing puts a tremendous amount of torque on the front leg and that's where he generates most of his power from.

For some of you more medically inclined people....for a right handed batter which calf would be more important in generating a swing? I would tend to think the right but I may be mixed up. For most right handed hitters I would say that the right calf would be more important. It's the drive leg. You generate yous power there. For Thomas though, I would say it's about even.. He has all of his weight on the back(right) foot as the pitch is being delivered, but does exactly the opposite at the point of contact. Often you will see him completely off of his back leg at the point of contact. He needs that plant foot to be healty. He might put more wieght on that front foot than any player in baseball.
March 12, 200521 yr It is the right leg. I have had a Minor League hitting coach teach me this. The back leg to a hitter is his drive leg. It generates power and helps keep the back leg stabel and balanced. Weak calfs lower balance and the result is some goofy looking K's.
March 12, 200521 yr It's ordinarily the right leg but we all know Frank does not have an ordinary swing. If you watch, he shifts his weight forward earlier than most hitters and falls into the pitch. I've heard hitting coaches say they would never teach anyone to hit like Frank but it works for him somehow. By the way, I love the warmups that Frank and others are sporting. Also, Frank was on the front of the Daily Illini sports section a couple days ago in full color and size.
