I hate the term "pure" blank. What's the difference between a "pure" hitter, and a non "pure" hitter.
You hit the damn ball with a bat, and either you hit for power or average, or you don't.
I mean my childhood idol Carl Yastrzemski won the triple crown in 1967, hitting in the clutch to lead the Sox to a pennant in the last weeks of the season, but his swing was not the most orthodox - does that mean he was an "impure" hitter? Even though he hit for power and average?
