I think only lately have I really begun to understand the purpose of Top Hand Torque (or whatever term you may use). I see it in Brett, I see it in Bonds, and I see it in other great hitters. But take a look at the clip on this site: http://www.youthbaseballcoaching.com/swings.html that has this picture on it: http://www.youthbaseballcoaching.com/images/Baseball_Clips_2-t0003.jpg

Third column, sixth row.

Where is the Top Hand Torque? It looks like the Diamondbacks are facing the Yankees, which leads me to believe that the clip is from 2001. Luis Gonzalez hit 50+ homeruns that year.

Can someone show me where the Top Hand Torque happens here?
