Post above:
2 - I don't have catcher in my way if in proper slot with heel-toe, unless she shifts into slot.
I didn't see any reference to that in the article. Jay said that sometimes the batter may initially restrict the umpire's view, but his/her view will open up when the batter gets into her hitting-position crouch.
----------------------------
He said something about looking through the catcher if chin below her helmet.
My point is in the proper heel-toe, fully in slot; I barely see the catcher let alone look "through" her.
