Go down to the discussion of 'heel to the sky' and read about getting the heel up and not the weight back to generate the greatest bathead speed. Jack suggests that thinking about pulling your lead shoulder toward the catcher has your hands begin forward may help.

Do inward turn and apply top hand torque and you will be fine.
