As the saying goes, no two snowflakes are the same.
Similarly, baseball fans know that no two pitchers have the same exact motion. The multitude of moving parts make each windup unique, but I’ve never seen anything like John Lollar’s “old-timey” leg kick.
The right-hander is the Friday night starter for the Murray State Racers, but I’m guessing he also moonlights as super scientist/astronaut Dr. Reed Richards.

That’s fantastic.
In case you don’t think this is real, here’s footage of Lollar pitching from back in 2013.
WATCH:
Unconventional, yet effective.
