High School Baseball Player’s Shocking Batter’s Box Routine Goes Viral

I love going to baseball games, but I have to admit that watching them on TV can be a real drag. If more players were as entertaining as the guy in this next video, I would have zero problem paying attention!

Every baseball player seems to bring a certain special something extra to the field, but the following teen from Japan has to be the best I've ever seen. In the below video, which has received more than 3 million views in only one day, we see a high school baseball player in Japan step up to the plate to take his turn at bat. Nothing about this game was out of the ordinary at all, until the teen started busting out some serious samurai-like moves with the bat.

This kid's pre-batting routing has the internet freaking out, with everyone wondering how he can possible stay focused on hitting the ball while flipping his bat all over the place. Some people say #12 is showing off a little too much, but I say if he can do it and still land a hit, why not?! What blows my mind the most is how the umpire and catcher seem so unfazed by this kid's routine. It also doesn't hurt that the band is cheering him on with "We Will Rock You" by Queen, because this kid is a total rock star!
