Hi Patrick,

Yes there is a grip called the Seemiller grip.  It is where you have your thumb around ne side of the bat and your index finger around the other side.  It has the advantage of eliminating the crossover point but it does restrict the use of your wrist for strokes.

We would recommend either of the two traditional grips, the shakehand or penhold grips.  This will give you the best chance to reach the highest level for you that is possible.
