Harris seems to have A+ figured out. 2b tonight has him hitting .379 with an ops of .979. Can't wait for an OF of Acuna, m. Harris, waters/pache
 
Chip: Anderson comes straight over the top and STILL gets rise on his fastball.

Clown has absolutely no idea that backspin causes rise, and coming over the top is the best way to efficiently create backspin.
 
Now Albies is literally balancing on one leg while waiting for the pitch. Wide open stance with a huge leg kick, hugging the plate. His mechanics are very funky now.

And his bat control is so good he makes it work. Imagine if he eliminated all that silly noise in his swing.
 
Meanwhile, Riley has half the hitting talent as Albies and work meticulously to get himself in a position to hit.
 
Backspin causes rise? Wow, that explains a lot with the line drives I hit on the golf course.

Seriously, I wonder about Chip--a lot.
