That is not how Randy Johnson pitches at all. Aside from the arm angle, everything in that pitching motions is wrong.

Thanks for the video Steve.

And that is how RJ pitches now (or close to it). His back and knees are shot.

People have his prime image in their heads.

It really is, but don't tell that to the gurus' of stances and pitching motion people. He has no knee. He throws all upper strength.

Re: MLB 09 The Show Video: Dodgers @ Giants

I really wasn't even paying attention until someone mentioned it and when I went back and looked at it I thought the same, that's Randy Johnson. It's certainly not "horrendous" as was posted. Randy looked pretty stiff as a board to me last year (in real life) and I thought that motion captured it all right, but I hope this doesn't get hijacked into a Randy Johnson pitching motion thread.

Anyone notice the chalk on the batters box.
When Furcal is batting the chalk is perfect.
By the end of the first inning you can tell the players have stepped all over it and smeared it.

Nice touch
