What is your favorite/most distinctive picther\'s wind-up?
Whenever I reminisce about pitchers from the past (or present I guess), one thing that always defined them in my mind when I'd remember a pitcher was their wind-up motion or motion from the stretch.
What wind-up motions are your favorites or which ones stick out the most to you? I'll start off with a few: Nolan Ryan's big leg kick Luis Tiant's swinging gate Dennis Eckersley's leg kick/submarine motion Rod Beck's swinging arm, set and delivery (which for me, for some reason, I think "shooter" really fits his full wind-up motion really well) Hideo Nomo's motion and how everyone in my little league at the time imitated that motion when he first came over (including me) Dontrelle Willis's controlled insanity wind-up Robb Nen's toe-tap going towards home plate Randy Johnson's with that eased leg kick and long 3/4 delivery |

Mitch Williams
He never looked at the plate, turned his back to the batter as he wound up, and fell over sideways towards 3B as he delivered. Had to be scary as hell for the hitter. |
