Kihachi Enomoto

swing from about 0.40



This is Kihachi Enomoto a legendary hitter in Japanese professional baseball. Surprisingly, at this time, he already shows us a modern hitting mechanics that is applicable to the present day's sluggers like Jason Giambi, Fred McGriff or Justin Morneau. In addition, more interestingly than it, he acquired his hitting technic through learning Aikido, which is Japanese traditional martial arts. For instance, he often was lost in meditation in dugout. His hitting mechanics looks just like an art having beauty of simpleness.
