I tried to tell my hitting coach that this depends on how far your feet are spread apart but I guess its some kind of universal technique. And also I guess your front foot isn't allowed to roll after the swing either, I told him the reason I roll my foot is because I keep more weight back when I stride and there isn't a whole lot of pressure on my front foot. I just hate when coaches try to install some universal advice on hitters, like stay high on the backside, swing down through the ball and keep the hands high. It sure ruins a lot of hitters.
