    I believe this may have been Cal Ripken a few yrs ago but there was one player I saw who when he stood in the batter's box he'd have the bat sideways across his chest basically and he'd have to use a LOT of wrist power actually get the bat around and make contact.


    ...Or I could just be dreaming up this stance/swing but I SWEAR i've seen a stance like this! HELP!

    Ed Sprague, who played third base for the Pirates a few years back did that. Not sure if that's who you're thinking of.

      Oh yeah, Ed Sprague... I should've known since he was with the Padres during the 2000 season. He has a weird stance that as weird as his swing...

              Neifi Perez. He is quite possibly the worst hitter in baseball. Watching him hit is brutal.

                  Mickey Tettleton had a messed up swing. But I do remember Cal Ripkin having a wierd swing in his latter years as a pro.

                          I must respectfully disagree with all y'all. The correct answer is Jeromy Burnitz. He looks like a total spaz even when he makes contact. His head is cocked to one side and his right side flies open. When he misses you feel embarassed for him cause he looks so freakin hopeless.
