I talked with Jerry Poling, author of Summer Up North, the story of Aaron's '52 season in Eau Claire. He said he is pretty sure Aaron's cross-handed batting style was corrected by a Braves scout (Billy Southworth, perhaps) while Aaron was still with the Clowns. Jerry estimates that could have been in May--perhaps late May. Aaron debuted with Eau Claire on June 14.
Neither Jerry nor I have seen anything to indicate Aaron batted cross-handed in Eau Claire. Hope that helps out a bit.
