[@brianchar-bow3273]

Why do Shohei Ohtani's batted balls fly so far despite his seemingly light swing? Ohtani's hitting form looks quite different from that of many other major leaguers who swing with the power of their upper arms. Ohtani's swing form is unique in that there is not much power in his upper arms or upper body. The three characteristics of Shohei Ohtani's swing are what we see. (1) Natural dynamic vision to see the movement of the ball, (2) A stable and smooth swing trajectory that does not shake his body axis due to his overwhelming strength of his torso, lower body, legs, and hips, (3) Instantly finds the best timing for hitting the ball and captures the timing with certainty. These three things are performed with a big body that has been trained through diet and training for his past 10 years. As a result, he can hit a moving ball as far with a steady and efficient swing as if it were a driver shot of a stationary golf ball. Shohei Ohtani's hitting style is characterized by his ability to instantly find the optimal sweet spot for a pitch coming into the hitting zone, and to ensure that he hits the ball just right. His swing appears stable, smooth, and unshakeable, with no effort until the follow-through, when he captures the best timing to ensure that he hits the ball at the right moment. Despite this, the ball flies a long way. This is because the power generated by the swing trajectory is efficiently concentrated on a single point on the ball without waste and converted into the ball's flying power. Shohei Ohtani is able to hit the ball this way, because, first, he has an unshakeable torso axis and strong legs and lower body, and second, he has good dynamic vision, which is the reason for his excellent pitch selection.（His good eye for the ball, which is the result of his natural dynamic vision.） He trains not only his upper body but also his lower body intensively, so that his legs and back, core, and axis are stable when he swings, and his body does not shake with the force of the swing. This is due to the strength of his well-trained legs and back muscles. If we compare Shohei Ohtani's swing with that of other sluggers, focusing on the relationship between the upper and lower body, we can see a significant difference during the swing. Many players swing with their upper bodies with great force and hit the ball, but when they follow through, their lower bodies, which are supported by an open stride, are defeated by the rotational force of the swing of the upper body, which has a longer trajectory than the stride, and in many cases, their feet flop or their lower bodies are jolted by the swing power. However, when looking at the follow-through of Shohei's swing after hitting a just-meet shot, the lower body hardly swings at all, and the body axis remains stable, smooth, and clean. Naturally, like other hitters, Otani's upper arm movement should be greater and stronger than that of his lower body, but the overwhelming muscular strength of his lower body, including the length of his legs, absorbs and supports the impact of the swing trajectory of his upper body. When we compare the upper and lower body movements, we see that his lower body strength overwhelmingly outweighs his upper body strength. This is what seems to mechanically affect the distance of the ball when Ohtani hits it. (Ohtani: lower body strength >= upper body swing, other hitters: upper body swing >= lower body) In his case, being a pitcher from a young age may have contributed to the strength of his torso and legs and back. To reduce the burden on their overworked arms and shoulders, pitchers intentionally focus on training to strengthen the lower body, including the legs and hips, which stabilize the trunk and axis. In his case, more than 10 years of training as a pitcher since his boyhood may have formed his overwhelming core stability and leg and hip strength, and may have had a positive effect on his hitting form. If so, this may be the result of his pursuit of becoming both a pitcher and hitter at the same time, a dual way that is very difficult to achieve. Another factor that may have contributed to his hitting is the way Japanese high school baseball education is conducted. Japanese high school baseball hitting instruction often adopts the "meet hitting (Just meet timing)" method. The bodies of Japanese high school students are often thin and without muscle strength, as they have not yet fully matured. In teaching these skinny and weak students to hit the ball, they often teach them to hit the ball at the best time, rather than hitting it with their upper arm strength. In other words, they teach them the "Just meet timing hitting" method, in which the ball is surely caught at the sweet spot and sent flying far away by its repulsive force. This approach is similar to the swing theory of hitting long shots in golf. In other words, this method has much in common with the theory of hitting the ball on the club's sweet spot and converting the acceleration of the club head into the force of the ball's flight with a stable swing trajectory that does not sway the axis. In Japanese youth baseball, a coach often uses this phrase when coaching skinny, ineffective players, "Don't swing hard for home runs. Aim for a single hit first, and think that a home run is an accidental extension of a single hit (when the conditions are right). The important thing is to hit the ball with a high probability of catching the center of the ball and making sure you hit it." Watch Shohei Ohtani's warm-up routine as he waits in the next batter's box. It shows what he thinks is important in hitting. He doesn't swing the bat blindly, but watches the timing of the opposing pitcher's pitch as it comes to the batter in front of him each time. He then tests the best timing for his own bat swing in accordance with the opposing pitcher's pitch. Shohei's hitting technique seems to focus on matching the bat precisely at the best time without hesitation to the various pitches thrown by the pitcher.　That seems to be another secret of Shohei Ohtani's hitting. Accurately analyzing Shohei Ohtani's hitting technique is tantamount to finding a methodology to make the ball fly farther and more efficiently. The fallible analysis of many baseball commentators is to try to discover Shohei's strong and weak zones. Certainly Shohei has some hard-to-hit zones that he is not good at, inside and outside.　However, that does not mean much to him. What is more important than the zone in Shohei's hitting is to match the best timing of his hits to the velocity of each pitch that comes his way. Because of his emphasis on this, he is able to time his hits to the best hitting point for each pitch, no matter which zone it comes from inside or outside. That is why Shohei can hit not only home runs, but also a lot of other types of hits, from singles to long balls, both to the right and to the left. His hitting style is not to aim for home runs. He aims for a single hit, and when all the timing is perfect, the ball he hits as an extension of the single hit happens to have the distance of a home run ball. In that sense, Shohei may be the player with the most potential to win the Triple Crown among today's major league players.
