It's amazing how similar yet how polar opposite it is with hitting and pitching mechanics. Both get to that rubber band position, but a pitcher ends it with all the momentum going forward, while the hitter tries to keep their weight back to snap the barrel forward/turn the barrel.
Both have to have to be able to rotate well! Pitcher does have to use their front leg to allow the upper half to snap over a strong fulcrum, kind of like in hitting where they stay back, but yes altogether very different movements!
