Ya, now I see what you're saying. There has definitely been a "looseness" to Ackley's weight slide, a deceleration factor that leads to wobble. Would undoubtedly be fixed with a "lead with the knees up the middle / to SS" thought ... Moe?
No doubt at all that ACKLEY's glide motion, COMBINED with his desire to yank the ball up into the air and down the line, creates a lunge effect. ::cpoints::
Remember Ackley's commercial, where he hit a light-tower shot right down the 1B line? :- )
