I miss weird batting stances, it's one of the things that actually got me into baseball. Craig Counsell turning his body into a stick and holding the bat up as high as he possibly can will always be the best. Alfonso Soriano is one of my all-time favorite ones.

(1:05)That kid’s batting sequence had a whole anime transformation scene and it wasn’t even his last form.
-
1:05 This isn't a stance, it's Art.
-
Growing up in Milwaukee, we always imitated Craig Counsell’s stance and our coach always told us to stop “dickin’ around”
-
As a kid growing up in the 90’s, watching Andres Galarraga’s stance was a blast. Unique stance and power. He deserves more recognition
-
1:15 that's not a baseball player, that's Anakin Skywalker
-
9:08 the pitcher was so scared of him🤣🤣
-
Who just loves baseball doesn’t exist
-
Gary Sheffield is by far my favorite batting stance. It's like a metronome. But it's a functional distraction to the pitcher as well. I can see how it may act like a hypnotic effect.
-
I ALWAYS thought Bagwell's stance was so weird when my parents took me to a game! I feel validated over something I first voiced to my folks 20 something years ago.
-
Remember everyone: it’s only stupid if it doesn’t work
-
Bagwell’s stance always got my attention when I first started to watch baseball as a kid. Sadly that was during the 2004 and 2005 season. When he retired shortly afterwards. I really wish he got a ring.
-
Wish baseball actually existed 😢
-
I liked Gary Sheffield's metronome stance and I'm glad his son does it, too. Also, Joe Morgan with those armpit farts.
-
THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING EDDIE MURRAY. DUDE HES AWESOME
-
You're nailing it, keep the great work!
-
I wish these batting stances came back
-
I miss weird batting stances.
-
As a kid, watching Jim Thome on the 03-05 Phillies was a treat. It wasn’t really a weird stance, but he held his bat real high like a broadsword aloft. And he absolutely put balls in the stratosphere this way.

Dude. I don't even watch baseball but I never miss one of your vids! You're amazing at what you do.
