 Mel Ott
By stepping high (the classic "foot in the bucket," much like Al Simmons), then shifting his weight forward and snapping his bat from low to high in an almost vertical swing, he constructed the kind of batting stance that gives hitting coaches nightmares.
Ott joined the Giants at the tender age of 17, and for two years, Ott was planted on the bench next to his tutor, who didn't want the youngster sitting with any of the veteran ballplayers.
Dubbed "Master Melvin" by New York writers when he became a regular at age nineteen, Ott had career highs of 42 HR and 151 RBI the following year, 1929, when he led the league in walks for the first of six times.
