Max Clark adjusts leg kick, finds success with Tigers

Max Clark has shown improvement at the plate for the Detroit Tigers since reverting to a modified leg kick. The rookie has been more effective against high-velocity fastballs, reaching base with hard-hit singles and a triple against the Chicago White Sox. Clark's adjustments followed difficulties with timing while using a toe-tap method that he originally implemented to enhance balance. He credits his recent success to returning to his natural swing mechanics, suggesting that further adaptations could be necessary as he continues to face various pitching styles.
