One is a National League All-Star and the reigning Homerun Derby champ, the other, a 36 yr old balding man with a wiffle ball bat. It’s a showdown for the ages as Batting Stance Guy goes head to head with the Milwaukee Brewer’s Prince Fielder in the first ever “Swing-Off!” And if you haven’t seen Prince do his thing before, we gotta tell you, you’re in for a treat. The other guy, well.. you know.

In honor of BSG’s trip to Milwaukee and his stance showdown with NL All-Star and homerun derby champ, Prince Fielder, we thought we’d take a look back at the slugger’s monster walk-off HR against the Pittsburgh Pirates from late September of last year. This at-bat by the man with the most jersey in baseball spurred the Brewers on to their first playoff appearance in 26 years, and gave us all a glimpse of what a major league gut looks like. yikes. Enjoy!

Hey, just because it’s recent doesn’t mean it’s not classic. This one’s for you Twin Cities, it’s the 2009 Kubel and Cuddyer “twin” cycles. So clever. Enjoy!

Welcome to the first of our new semi-weekly series, BSG’s Who to Watch! We figured if you’d gone to all the effort to visit a site about a man who imitates batting stances, you might be interested in getting his take on the best stances to watch on your local FSN channel (shameless plug) this MLB season. So we’ll be breaking down a different batch of hitters each week, starting with the NL East. Enjoy!

Remember when times were simpler? When big, red-bearded men could hit ludicrous amounts of home-runs late in their careers and nobody said boo? Sighhhhhhh. Thanks for the memories big mac. We hope this one takes everyone back as well, cause if nothing else, it was a whole lotta fun. Enjoy!

There are baseball moments, and then there are baseball moments. Though the record may not be his anymore, the love, well it’s all for you hammerin hank. No leisure suits for Bonds, and that says it all. Enjoy!

Just as no good U2 concert ends without a rendition of “With or Without You”, there have been few appearances in the last year for BSG that haven’t involved a Kevin Youkilis swing. Back in February BSG took a trip down to Florida to visit with the Red Sox at spring training and got some face time with the man with the best stance in baseball. Learn everything you ever wanted to know about the AL All-Star, from why he sweats in his own eyes to why he based his warm-up swing on Jeter’s (yikes) in this 5-part “interview” with BSG. Enjoy!
