Thanks,

I thought I stated what you are talking about...""It is easier to control which pitches we swing at with a closed (square) front toe at touchdown. (this is the most important part of hitting MLB pitching).""

""If a hitter TRIES to open that foot up prior to any part of the foot touching the ground, he makes himself more susceptible to swinging at pitches that he should not swing at.""

or as you called it "slop"
