I didn't think "stepping in the bucket" meant just raising your front leg. I thought it meant stepping away from the plate when you swing. :?

Yep. That's definitely what it means. Nothing to do with leg kick.

Your right of course. Only " Bucketfoot Al" qualifies in the strict sense of the term. My dad would always say that guys like this look like they are stepping in a bucket when they hit. :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: [/quote:9229f6dc25]

You need a shot of John Kruk against Randy Johnson in the 1993 All-Star game. Here's the video:
