How To Hit A Home Run

[Xxsideshow22xX]

the real answer to hitting a homerun is to swing the bat. you cant hit a homerun if you dont swing the bat, you cant get a hit at all if you dont swing the bat.

[rookiecards24seven]

soo fucking gay lmfao

[sjc1410]

that was dumb lol

[TheMegaPros]

This is stupid

[millionminimagicmice]

FUCK THIS! Just go out and sling it!

[TheFieryPotato]

And don't leave a reply saying that he was going to back up the throw, because I already know that. Just a joke ;)

[TheFieryPotato]

I never knew the catcher was supposed to run to 1st base too

[ZziRich]

@chaytongilmore Your wrong

[chaytongilmore]

WOW who pulls off the ball with their bottem hand instead of throwing your top hand (power hand) that comes off your hip and using your bottem hand as a guide??? UGLY SWING! That was all upper body and no hips into the ball! I mean you bent your front knee and opened that foot up too loosing power! More like pulling a groundball for an out! Not homerun -____-

[adamw122007]

@chaytongilmore you cant even spell, so how do you know how to hit a ball?

[nbussells11]

There are other factors than just these to hitting a homerun. Trust me i kno i was in the my state homerun derby contest.

[32baseballfreak]

ugly swing lol



[taipod119guys]

Terrible vid. He pulled off, and when he was at contact with the ball, his body was back and not going through the ball. This video is more disgusting than licking elephant shit.

[razor123414]

woowwww lmao!!!!!

[Rockinsweetly]

have you guys noticed that if you keep your elbow up, when you swing it comes right down. its just a myth. it got confused with your elbow, your back elbow has to be higher than the one pointing towards the pitscher... ive been a high school coach for 22 years now

[toddyscooter34]

That sucked I could teach how to hot better then that

[BAP3221]

[ThePokemonbaseball]

[joeza100]

Chcuk Norris once said, "That was easy." Oh wait, everything to him was easy.

[Everimmortallaura]

Ahh seriously people? If you really want to learn how to hit a baseball GO OUTSIDE and practice. Don't hate on the video because you're too lazy

[Suhisabeast90]

this is gay we wanna know how to be Prince Fielder not F ing Brett Gardner

[sk8erguy781]

@Suhisabeast90 brett gardner made it farther than you with his slap hits



[ouijaterror]

Excelent , Perfect.

[thebuchaofficial]

wait so you are supposed to drop your bat when heading to first base? holy shit i never knew that!

[mallow399]

you cant teach how to hit a domer. lol just put a good swing on it and it may happen

[wesleybaseball22]

This is just comedy in itself.

[andresrojas22]

HE DIDNT HIT A FUCKING HOME RUN

[ADMIN7674]

hahaha he triped when he hit the ball 0:31 

[TubularMonkey]

Move your left and right legs in succession, pumping as you go. This is called running, and it will provide the locomotion needed to reach first base.

[garciatony5]

oh wow is that how you hit a homerun? sounds so easy!!

[mcsmally13]

thts just how to make contact!

[xxdynasty52xx]

if you guys look closely he opens up his front foot which will cause you to open your shoulder and pull your head and MISS the ball.... horrible video

[maalikkaps15]

thanks for stating the obvious, plus that hit was clearly not a homer

[ninetailboys]

you cant think of hitting a home run you just try to make contact and like this year i got 7 homers and i dident think of im going to hit a home run you just make contact

[mattentertainemt]

ok how to it a homer open your hips when u swing

[foureyesjopedia]

look through the pages and see how many are responses to my name. like if there is more than 20 XD

[TheNastyaaron]

haha ihave that bat!!!

[ironman3610]

it didn't even tell you how to hit a homerun

[chaytongilmore]

i thought it was top hand power and ur bottem hand guides it to the ball not pull with your left hand??

[TheAthleticism]

i have watched these kind of videos 5 times and i havent learned anything

[mjmontalbo]

of course the catcher runs to first base to back the throw up, I guess you never watch baseball

[EnergeticVortex]

How to hit a home run

1: Dont think about hitting a homerun it will go

2: Yes always keep your eye on the ball

3: Stay back while hitting

4: Bend your knees

5: Make sure you can hit it

6: Step into the ball

Now just have fun :D

[logathy]

@EnergeticVortex now that is some good advice right there

[SadegoGG]

@EnergeticVortex

2: There is no point in consciously watching the ball. In fact, you can only consciously think of one thing at a time so the rest of your comment is hypocritical if you're consciously watching the ball.

3: Can mean anything

4: Isn't consistent with every hitter

5: Again, makes no sense

6: This would result in getting hit by the pitch. Which isn't ideal for hitting a home run.

[metsforme4]

I didn't even know you were supposed to run tirades first base maybe I'll try it out thank you

[MrNick81795]

if it not a good hit he can

[blakmob24]

"now u should drop your bat and head to first." No shit sherlock

[Jouris100]

this was so stupid

[MuffinMcFluffin]

These tips are accurate, with two exceptions:

1) Your bottom hand pulls your bat through the zone, but it also guides you to the ball. Your top hand is designated for after-contact drive and power.

2) You shouldn't ever relocate your weight on your front foot. Keep your weight back at all times through your swing.

But the biggest problem is, no one should teach you how to hit a home run. Teach someone to hit solidly, and home runs will come. It's a simple science.

[KirksNipples]

This is gay

[dpwnzr]

how to hit a homerun more like how to get out your back has to be strate

[KYLECASWELL23]

people should know how to hit

[flikmybik14]

[flikmybik14]

[deathmus30]

[ingosnow25]

@deathmus30 did it help you learn to use correct grammar also? A match, not playing tennis here buddy.

[XxTopHeistxX]

strike zone is smaller in real life

[satan865]

You don't try to hit home runs, they come from line drive shots,if it goes out it goes out.

[PaNcakeModz]

@ReaperxMagic You've hit 1

[agroblader2]

because its that fucking easy to hit a homerun? it takes a lot skill

[metallicafan5059]

How to Hit a Home Run:

1. Hit the ball good.

2. Hit the ball far.

3. (Optional) Follow the pros, take steroids!

[HmongZboy]

i did this, and i hitted the laptop

[jrbrocks1]

Wow!

[thunderboy102020]

im the catcher HEY COME BACK HERE YOU I GOT A GLOVE

[litojonny]

[kpasma]

[1554joker]

787 people still dont know how to hit a home run

[Techn9ne1999]

[hhawks21]

[coddoc2332]

[KillaUsman786]

Fuck basball!

[PaNcakeModz]

@KillaUsman786 fuck you

[panniize]

[tristanman1]

1,140 people dont know how to play baseball

[pokeyjokekid]

never play like you want to hit a home run

[lt234567]

hahah the 27 people who liked that top comment obviously know nothing about baseball

[zubeast]

@lt234567 do u not understand sarcasm

[Bigmikeisinthehouse]

Ur soooooooo wrong

[bravesf109]

Did anyone else learn absolutely nothing??

[pepper9987]

i hit 12 hrs already i dont need ths

[AreaIVchamps]

@bravesf109 I learned to wear tennis shoes while hitting, hope theres no infield/outfield, head to first base after hitting, and that the strike zone is where strikes are called.

[KWeber38]

@bravesf109 me

[AnthonyTunis]

u suck

[06222426]

LOOK UP PERRINE BASEBALL ADRIEN#24

[punks507]

The first thing is to hit like a pro, Is not to use a metal bat

[SkateborderX12]

@punks507 Duh!It will probably always be a home run! :)

[bubblepeppermints]

at 0:27 close your eyes and listen closely to what he says throught the rest of the video

[eblinn15]

No not even close. He didn't keep his head on the ball, he just pulled right off. and when he took his stride, he opened up, loosing most of his power. I can tell you HE WILL NOT be hitting home runs with that technique... He is a disgrace.

[guninit23]

noob



[nico12497]

wrong



[alexibanez2]

roids

[elred21]

dumb



[mjpugh123]

does it still work if your right handed?

[TheAdam59]

How did this teach me how to hit a home run. so there telling me... do this but... swing really hard.

[Mrsteezi]

greasiest swing ive ever seen, pretty much nothing was proper especially that front leg

[dirtbikes2001]

Remember when you could watch a video without having to sit through commercials?

Remember when music videos were uploaded by users and not VEVO

Remember when all the info was to the right of the video?

Remember you could rate a video 1-5 stars?

Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?

Remember when the users controlled the site and not corporations?

Post this in every video and lets start a youtube revolution!

Thumbs up to keep at the top comment

[heybubba1235]

i already hit 2 home runs in a row

[musclemania128]

heres how u hit a home run u put ur hands back 45 45 and swing up dont chop practice dont give up and take batting practice three times aweek

[linkhyliazora]

wat if the letters on ur uniform on on the bottom of ur uniform? are u still suposed to hold ur hands around the letters of ur uniform ? :)



[XxHomieChasexX]

Thats actually a horrible swing he showed

[Rushfish4]

@Foureyesjopedia yea he is just incase the ball gets thrown past the 1st baseman the runner doesnt get second

[foureyesjopedia]

I never knew that the catcher was supposed to run to first base too

[previnsnaidu1]

@foureyesjopedia catcher run to first inorder to field the ball in case of a bad throw

[bravewzr]

@foureyesjopedia with nobody on base a catcher should always run with the batter. Hes there to back up a bad throw to first.

[Mrninjamonkey100]

@foureyesjopedia Hes following the base runner so if just in case he steps off the base the catcher can tag him and he will be out but this is only for a walk or ball and make sure no one is on base except him because the other runners might steal.

[flyingskunk99]

@foureyesjopedia backing up the throw to first base

[shikster4]

@foureyesjopedia its to back up the throw incase the infielder over throws it

[ClemsonTiger4Life28]

@foureyesjopedia it's so that if the throw gets by the 1st baseman, the catcher will be there to back up the play...

[foureyesjopedia]

@ClemsonTiger4Life28 i understand that, but the right fielder can also do that. I play all positions in outfield, and the catcher doesn't back up the throw to first, the right fielder does. it's just what your team thinks is the best

[josh245512]

@foureyesjopedia

in highschool and middle school they do to back the throw to first.

[ozoneparkjoe]

@foureyesjopedia-- With no runners on base the catcher runs down the first base line to back up first base.. Only with no runners on base..

[foureyesjopedia]

@ozoneparkjoe I know but i thought he was hitting a homerun.

[Taxi275]

@ozoneparkjoe Nah that's right field.

[sorm82]

@foureyesjopedia typically when the ball is put in play and there will be a throw to first, to throw out the batter, the catcher will run towards the first base coaching box to back up the throw, just in case the throw gets past the first basemen. though clearly this is not a real game it would be a real and correct reaction from a catcher.

[MrShutupwillu]

@foureyesjopedia Dude the catcher goes behind 1st basemen so he could catch thee ball if the right fielder is dozing off and the ball thrown is way to high or someone makes an erroe :l

[Blusay1]

@foureyesjopedia I dont think there was an actual homerun, and a catcher is supposed to back up a play at first base with nobody on base, duh

[ozzmancometh53]

@foureyesjopedia Just in case the batter hits to around 2nd base in order to cover a possible error when throwing to 1st base.

[thedonovan96]

@foureyesjopedia it is for if some one misses first then ther is a man behind it and he cant run 

[manbearpig6288]

@foureyesjopedia thats actually correct if the bases are clear dumb fuck

[RzrBkFann]

@foureyesjopedia well then you dont know baseball.. he's there incase there is a bad throw to 1st to back 1st base up (if nobody is on)

[asceventura]

@foureyesjopedia The right fielder should as well. Not directly to the base but to back it up.

[eminemsdurag]

@foureyesjopedia leave this dumbass alone he obviously doesn't play baseball

[cheezedudle]

@foureyesjopedia To back up the throw, a good catcher will. It also intimidates the runner.

[Cbaseballboy2]

@foureyesjopedia haha yes. i catch and i beat half the runners down the line.

[comeandgetit55]

@foureyesjopedia Catchers run to first base in order to back up the first baseman in case of a bluper.

[MrMarshfieldrams]

@comeandgetit55 no thats right field that backs up first in case of a blooper

[comeandgetit55]

@MrMarshfieldrams No... what if the throw is coming from third base? Do you really think the right fielder would go all the way to back of the first baseman if the ball goes past him. He wouldn't get there on time. Thats why some Catchers do that.

[detox151]

@foureyesjopedia .... If there is no runner at 3rd, it makes perfect sense to run it out as well to serve as a backup for a possible errant throw!

[TheFisherman000]

@foureyesjopedia a good catcher will run behind 1st base to back up the throw so if it is a wild throw the catcher will catch it and runner wont be able to go to second

[TheSteelerfan20]

@foureyesjopedia yup, its so they can back up the throw from whoevers throwing to first base.

[lakiajbay]

@TheSteelerfan20 The steelers lost lol hahahahahahahahaha

GO PACK!!!!

[kevinsodapop]

@foureyesjopedia yea in little league when there r 2 strikes and the catcher dosnot catch it u have to go to 1st and he has to tag

[StudioYMJ]

@foureyesjopedia yea watch a major league game on grounders theyll back up first

[jakeNDalex]

@foureyesjopedia With nobody on base and a ground ball is hit, catchers are supposed to run to back up the throw to first.

[eternal8pcurr]

@foureyesjopedia actually the catcher should run to back up first base on an overthrow.

[seattlehawkins]

Nigger!

[airsoftfreak18]

first off no because he has his elbow up its suppose to be able to be down

[Cziehl1]
