Murray State P John Lollar has an interesting leg kick in his pitching motion. 

There have been some interesting wind-ups in the history of baseball. Hideo Nomo had that herky-jerky motion before he released the pitch. Pitchers can do some funny things before delivering the pitch, but Murray State has a pitcher that has an interesting delivery.

Check out this photo here of John Lollar.

He must do some yoga or something. How in the heck does he get his leg up that high? That is madness!

Imagine the deception that he gets when he throws that pitch? His arm is going to look like it is coming right out of his leg. Hitters are going to have some trouble figuring out where that ball is going to come out from. They are going to struggle making contact on a pitch that is coming out of his leg.

You can take of Lollar’s pitching motion right here in this vid:

Lollar made 21 appearances out of the bullpen lat season and went 2-0 with a 4.44 ERA. Lollar is getting the opportunity to start for Murray State. We will see how he does with the opportunity. I wonder what his motion looks like when there is a man on base?
