I was a kid in the late 90's so I tried to imitate Griffey all the time. Could never get the timing down. My stance for real ended up more like a lefty bagwell
Ditto, and it seemed like everyone who tried to imitate Griffey did a lot more harm than good. His swing, as beautiful as it was, was impossible for an amateur, much less a kid, to imitate.

This thread made me go to YouTube and watch all of the Batting Stance Guy's old videos again. That guy is so awesome

David Justice was a popular one.

I loved to imitate David Justice's check swing technique.

Dick Groat
Swung late anyway and exaggerated his stance so I hit to theright side of the field about 80% of the time.

Also, my 9 year old son has Molina's stance down pat. Even signals the ump for time in the same way.

Not one mention of Darryl Strawberry.
Or Mike Schmidt shaking his arse?

Jeter, Griffey, & Sheffield
Posted on 10/13/17 at 9:29 am to 504Voodoo
Griffey, Sosa, Tettleton, Alou, Bagwell, Ichiro, Vlad, Sheffield, M Giles, Furcal, A Jones, Ortiz, Manny, McGwire, Bonds, Gallaraga, Burnitz
The neighbors and I used to "draft" players and make lineups and we had to mock the stance of whoever was up in the order. I would switch hit to match the players as well
Also used to do pitchers. Nomo, Kim, Remlinger, Leskanic, Dontrelle Willis, Pedro, Randy Johnson, Kerry Lightenberg were some of my favorites

SHEFFY and The SAMMY HOP after hitting a homer!

I did Griffey's a lot but from the right side.
Another random one I liked was Bernard Gilkey's. Can't really explain it and I hate the Cardinals.
