The crews I've watched so far are really incredible at the plate.

The guy working the plat in the NC - Vandy eliminiation game (Scott Erby) is using a Davis stance - with slot positioning.
Much like Gerry himself:
An article written by Scott Ehret on the Davis system in 2009 also talks about using slot positioning when using the Davis stance.
The Davis Stance
A lot of the guys in my association use the Davis stance because Gerry came and taught at an association clinic around 2004-2005 (before I had joined) and they all use slot alignment positioning.
I wonder if his thinking changed to slot vs. "over the catcher" after you learned it.
