McCovey Chronicles, a San Francisco Giants community

watch this video of Willie Mays and pay attention to his hitting mechanics and his swing and followthrough, where he puts the bat head on the ground (not his batting practice swing). Then go back and watch Juan Uribe's HR swing last night. I'm not saying Uribe is Mays. I 'm just saying I was struck by the great similarity. I knew Uribe's swing reminded me of someone, but it wasn't until last night that I realized who it was.

A tribute to Juan Uribe, and a question that we shall ponder for eternity
