    5:31 that clip is of a pitcher who is imitating his teammates batting stances. He's and American League pitcher and American League pitchers generally don't get a chance to hit because they have the DH who will hit in the pitcher's spot in the batting lineup.
    Basically he's making fun of his teammates' weird batting stances.
    Also Different stances don't change or help you hit a certain way, it's really a personal preference and comfortability type of thing. Everyone's stance is generally pretty unique

      @@RymeofDawn That is pretty close to mine. I would dig my right foot in, then tap the end of my bat on the opposite side of the plate. To make sure I could cover the whole plate. Then point the bat forward and then swing the bat in a tight circle by my chest. Then set. The stance and just the whole up to bat routine in general is just a comfort thing and for some people, superstition

    That heavy pitcher, Bartolo Colon, was one of my favorites when he was with the Mets. He's the guy you've probably seen do a behind the back flip of the baseball to get a runner out at first, and he's also a guy who in his whole career, which was extensive, never hit a home run. When he finally hit one, Mets fans like myself went crazy.

    Howdy Bruv! Baseball games take anywhere from 3 hours and close to 5 hours sometimes to play! When you go to a live game at a stadium, you do many things as a fan. Especially eat awesome, really bad for you, food and many drink beer and booze. It's a chilled out party with your friends and new game time friends that you meet and party with. It is a purposely slow game that you can fill an entire day with entertainment! If you ever get a chance to go see a game live, I would suggest Fenway #1 "Boston Red Sox" and then Yankees Stadium #2 and many others tied for 3rd place including Cardinals, Mets, Dodgers, etc. Cheers!!

    Bartolo Colon is a pitcher and because he's a little... stocky, he's a slow runner and not the best hitter. If you haven't seen it yet you should watch his first career home run video, he was on the Mets and the players left the dugout for the locker room to mess with him. So he came back to an empty dugout. The crowd went WILD. Pitchers often aren't great hitters because they don't have to be, so when someone hits a HR like Bartolo it's special. The crowd and announcers loved it, it was great.

    6:50 - most players have just one stance. What makes the moment funnier is that the batter was the opposing pitcher, and pitchers are notorious for being completely unable to hit - especially American League pitchers because most of their games use the designated hitter (American League pitchers only bat in interleague / World Series games when played in a National League stadium, so AL starting pitchers probably get fewer than 20 at-bats in an entire 162-game season).

    @lisazaccardimeunier8378 4 роки тому

    The reason is was so funny that David Ortiz tried to bunt is because he's big, slow and powerful. Players that regularly bunt are small and quick. It was definitely unexpected and the guys on the other team were making fun of him. Power hitters don't usually bunt because they're likely to hit the ball a long way if they get a good pitch to swing at. A lot of players are from the Dominican Republic, so they share that in common, which creates great comradere. You'll notice Adrian Beltre involved in a lot of the joking around. He's played for almost every team in baseball, and has really good relationships with lots of players. He's known as a jokster. At 13:30, the reason you recognize the batter is because he was the pitcher who had his shirt pulled, when the batter ran past him, earlier in this same video. He's been in the league FOREVER, played for many different teams, and is old and slow lol. Pitchers aren't known for being good hitters. In major league baseball, there are two leagues, the American League and the National League. Pitchers who play in the American League don't have to hit. Instead, the team his a designated hitter, who only hits, and doesn't play any position in the field. Only pitchers on National League teams have to also hit.

    The guy with the different batting stances: he was an American League pitcher getting a very rare opportunity to bat, because in the AL, there is a designated hitter who basically bats for the pitcher. In the NL, pitchers always bat for themselves. When AL and NL teams meet, they use the rules of whichever park they are in. So since Pittsburgh is an NL park, that meant that the pitcher was going to bat for himself. That guy was being a little goofy, because he’s so inexperienced at hitting he wasn’t really going to try that hard. He was imitating other well known batting stances of his friends. Typically, each batter only uses one batting stance. So Bauer was really just goofing around with that display.

    Players have only one stance and might make minor tweaks, but they only use one stance at a time. The batter switched up his stance because he was an American League pitcher, where pitchers don’t hit, but he was in a National League park, where pitchers do hit. So because he knew he was probably going to get out anyways, he just decided to have fun.

    Compared to most other major sports, baseball is very chill. There's no time limit to the games and there's 162 of them. So, yeah, plenty of time to have a bit of fun with stuff like this. Besides, when your team is batting and you're in the dugout, there's not a whole lot to do. In other sports, teams will use that kind of time to strategize and such, but in baseball, it's very much a reactionary sport. Most of the 'strategy' involves the pitcher, catcher, and manager, the other players on the field are there to react to hits for the most part...so... not much in the way of strategy involves them except for very specific scenarios, which usually just involves telling them to do X or Y. (Shift right for this batter, move in closer for that batter, watch out for this runner to steal bases, etc.)

    To respond to your talk around the 6:55 area. Essentially your batting "stance" is just a comfort thing to the play. Almost a rhythm you can create to help time a pitch coming in. Essentially the guy was just mimicing batting stances from other players just for the fun/hell of it

  • @thereallyst
    @thereallyst 4 роки тому

    The player with different stances is a pitcher who plays in the American League. Pitchers in that league don't hit unless they are playing the National League teams in their stadium. Pitchers are usually considered an easy out so he was just playing around even though he's not a too bad hitter...

  • @mikelewis495
    @mikelewis495 4 роки тому

    7:09 The mannerisms of the batter's stance usually make no difference at all up until they reach the ready position. Once the pitcher starts his delivery, they'll pretty much all come to a very similar stance with their elbows up, the bat behind their head, and their weight back on their back foot. Sometimes they'll hold the bat slightly differently. You've obviously seen the bunt, but even if they're swinging away, they'll sometimes "choke up" which is where they grip the bat a few inches away from the end of it to give themselves a little more control over their swing to make it easier to make contact at the cost of losing a little bit of power. Usually, batters will do this when they're down in the count. But that's not what's going on here. Every player has their own unique style for how they swing the bat around and what they do with their arms and such before they come to the ready position, and they usually do the exact same thing every time. It's just a part of how they get their mind ready for the next pitch. It's a part of what makes baseball unique. So what was happening there was that batter was mimicking other players' stances just to have a little bit of fun with them. What I find interesting was that he was able to do this without being too distracted to be able to make good decisions on whether to swing or not. He took a couple there that looked difficult to lay off of.

At the University of Texas, when the football team scores a touchdown the band plays a certain song. The only lyrics to it are “Texas fight, Texas fight!” Then music. “Texas fight,” again, more music, then, out of nowhere, “OU SUCKS!” OU is Oklahoma University. Now, the real irony is that the crowd shouts “OU SUCKS!” At EVERY touchdown of EVERY game whether the opponent is actually OU or not. UT could be playing Colorado, UT scores a touchdown and......”OU SUCKS!”
