Hello Jack. With regard to maximum extension (follow through in the swing), do you believe it can be attained to the opposite field if the player keeps both hands on the bat?

I have noticed that some current top hitters (A-Rod, Manny Ramirez, David Ortiz take one hand off the bat in hitting to the opposite field with power (though that is there natural finish).

Ted believe Williams said he did not use the Green Monster to maximize his power, but instead choose to pull the ball or center the outside pitch for the most part.
