One thing in Abrams approach is how he sinks down on his back leg as he swings. So his head moves downward while trying to make contact.
Either needs to start low in his stance, or stay tall to keep that head still. 'Stack and jack' I think FP used to call it.
Ruiz just needs some damn patience. He's in a constant 2 strike mode. Anything close to the zone and he's swinging.
