I never realized that they actually swing their entire body into the swing. Gives me a whole new perspective on how they get their power

Ken Griffey Jr was so enjoyable to watch.

Man, look how still Cano's head stays while his entire body twists. That's called keeping your eye on the ball.

Why would people not like this video?? It shows key components at what makes a good hitter.....

Robinson Cano has the most legit swing i've ever seen!

Pedroia's swing is fascinating. He holds his head straight up, which would normally make it harder to accurately track and target the ball. He also drops his hands below his shoulders and assumes the hammering position with the back hand very, very early as well. It is difficult to replicate what he does, but that swing in this clip is a thing of beauty for how long the bat remains in the path of the ball. It's quite remarkable.

Thanks for posting this, OP. I wanted my youngest daughter to see some good slo-mo swings without commentary, just so she could take in the motion as a whole, and this is perfect.

3:20 Cano minimizing head movement to PERFECTION.

The song is called "300 violin Orchestra" by Jorge Quintero

thanks for the excellent slow-mo clips. what i see is that most great hitters are able to keep their EYES very still (quie eyes period) as they enter the final hitting zone period.

Manny’s swing is one of the all time best

Mike Piazza's Swing was awesome.

I just want to say, nowadays, pros in the mlb only try to swing up. The only thing scouts recruit for are hitters that can hit the ball hard and hit home runs. For example, in the video look at both Jose Bautista and Bryce Harper’s swings. Both of them have a big dip in their swings. When you swing up, you only have a chance to hit the ball on the tip of the bat. It’s easier to understand if I showed you in real life with a bat and a ball. But then, look at both Robinson Cano’s swing. I know you can’t really tell from that angle, but his swing is level, and it doesn’t dip down at all. If you swing level or EVEN swing down, you have a better chance of hitting the ball. If you swing level, the ball could hit the bat on any place on the bat. Again, it’s hard to understand to explain this on a comment of a KZfaq video, but I tried to make it as clear as I can to you. So this is why people should stop swinging up and dipping in their swings, and swing level or even down. You could even try it by just going to a park with a parent and ask them to pitch to you and just try swinging level or down. Have a good day

Love this video! Would definitely be interested in more hitters and even pitchers in slow motion

0:43 Bryce Harper looks like he's on his high school baseball team

david wright's chin-to-chin is just textbook perfect. that's how he finds the gap so often. what a gorgeous swing.

who says that thy donz like the mlb swings in slo mo, u just cant beat it.

I want more slow motion swings like these...

It is actually awesome. Really it is.

Albert Pujols has a beautiful swing, very aggressive.

Robinson Cano has the best swing of all time.

Several of the swings are not in game situations, they are transferring the weight too soon to the front foot because they are just swinging for homeruns. The game situation swings for most players keeps the weight behind the front knee until the swing makes contact even though it looks like all the weight is on the front foot. The swing carries the momentum and weight beyond the front knee as the swing gets beyond the front knee. The "homerun" swings get you way out in front of breaking and off speed pitches, you won't be able to hold up. It works if you can guess right, and sometimes guessing is the thing to do according to Ted Williams.

Supper helpful, thanks!

Missing Griffey, but Cano probably has the prettiest swing in this video

wow this really helped

Almost all mlb hitters let their back foot come up on the tip to shift their weight to their stiff front leg and rotate around it.No squishing the bug.Then they settle down on the ball of the foot for a split second,AFTER contact.The back arm slots to the side supporting the hands and the top elbow works up to keep the bat in the zone.All you got to do is look at the slow mo,there is no throwing the hands or staying 'level"with the shoulders.They do not swing down at a ball that's going down either.

They all sit back, cool

Come man no ken Griffey jr he's got the best swing if not one of the best swings!!!

Pujols or Cano have the best swings. So smooth

prince fielder, what a tank!!!

Just you wait, I'll be in one of these highlight clips

J.D. Drew has a pretty solid swing. When he isn't on the DL :D

this was a very good video

Your missing the best swing in history. KEN GRIFFY JR. All swings fail in comparison.

Its good enough to get him into the majors

i would definitely take a good look at mark trumbo, that guys swing is outrageous

Hanley swing is my favorite all time... Watch how he can stride that far and still drive his front knee through the ground to get crazy bat speed...1:24

Love them or hate them Barry Bonds and A-Rod had some of the best looking swings ever

Thankyou

Darryl Strawberry. I want to see a slo-mo of that.

HR derby swings are not the best examples because they lunge towards the pitcher more than they do in a game, and they swing harder than they do normally. They do show how to keep hands inside the ball and follow through with extension. That Gonzalez swing is a thing of beauty.

Cano has the sexiest swing. So smooth.

Harper has the best swing

300 violin orchestra🤩

Great video. Show maybe major league throws in slo mo. Just elite in fielders. Maybe even outfielders hosing players. In slo mo. Thanks

the song was rlly good and the bryce harper swing

you r so right

gotta learn to swing like them

I hate when people say fielders swing is bad. He has great hands and his hand-knee connection is where he gets his power; not his brute strength

Frame rate, or speed reduction ratio?

watch canos head throughout his swing. Insane how little it moves

For all you squish the bug lovers take this that back foot off the ground is POWERR

harpers swing is great

He has the power. and the accuracy. but that will only carry him for so long

What elements of it do you like?

When I plant my front foot and load into the ball, I turn my back foot but everyone in this video lifts there's up, I guess i'll lift mine from now on.

If you are committed like that.Fooled by breaking or of speed ?

I use these images for my golf swing. Just swing low like it's a grounder

Fielder swings so hard and fast that you cant even see the bat in slow-mo.

I like prince fielders swing. He puts so much of his body into the swing, he's about to fall over

But really helpful though!!!

my top five sweetest looking swings 1) Will Clark 2) Ken Griff 3) Justin Upton 4) Don Mattingly 5) Manny Ramirez

you missed the cespedes throw to the plate when the A's were playing the Angels in Oakland

No Big Mac? Greatest swing in MLB in this era when this video was made.

nice

Hands and Hips Baby!

The hands and back elbow get way too high during a lot of his loads, and that really messes him up with pitchers that are lower and/or on the inside part of the plate. That second swing where he pops up epitomizes the issue. He's succeeding right down despite this flaw due to his raw talent.

Greatest all time: Ken Griffey Jr. Best Current: Robinson Cano Most badass swing all time: Juan Uribe. Currently: Harper/ Bautista Raw power of all time: Bonds (even without roids) Current raw power: Giancarlo Stanton

What's the song?

Carlos Gonzales' wing is beautiful

só paulada

what is song used in the video? there is no credit given to the music used in this video in either the video or in the description

Hanley has by far the best swing in this video, hands down

Jim made that bat look like it was made out of rubber

Manny has the best swing.

what is the music that is Used in this video

Josh donaldsons swing tops all of those

robby cano has the smoothest stroke in baseball

Yeah ima go with mike trout also because of his swing

You're hilarious.

right behind you

The song is 300 violin orchestra just fyi

what is the song in the video called?

I was never a brewers fan but prince fielder is amazing

notice how every guys head is behind their back knee

¡itsssssss epiiiiiiiiccccccccccccccccccc es epicooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Hence the reason he's currently batting .388 with 5 dingers

Posey?

Right hes better than everyone that was shown. The swing that looked the best to me or that i liked was jose bautista

where`s Miguel Cabrera?

Man, I watched this because it said there would be Griffey. I want my money back.

Snap of the wrists

What song is this?

What is that song called?

no they did hes just too fast for the slow mode hes a beast

What is this song called?

What song is this

you should have put me in there

Why isn't ken Griffey jr In this

No, I'm focusing on targeting as well. His ER forces him to make a decision sooner. He can't wait as long. His swing plane sucks because he has to use his arms.
