THG states...""A hitter who is away from the plate would seem to rotate at least as much on an outside pitch as he has to rotate more just to be able to cover that part of the plate on an outside strike.""
Sorry but there is less rotation to cover the outside half, and more rotation to bring the barrel to the inside half.
More rotation equals less coverage of the plate.
More rotation plus far distance from the plate equals K.
