Unite the hands through opposing finger pairs

Pinch each pinky and ring finger together and flex them away from the middle and index fingers. When the trail hand is placed against the lead hand, unite the trail hand's bottom two fingers with the lead hand's top two fingers; this places the lead thumb in the trail palm and can be used with baseball, overlap, or interlock grips.
