Most comparisons between golf and baseball involve analysis of a baseball hitter’s mechanics, but you can learn just as much watching the throwing motion.
For example, if you’re already familiar with the RST, you understand that a pitcher’s weight shift helps provide power generation, just as it does in the golf swing mechanics.
What you may not have noticed, though, is how important the golf transition concept of “separation” is to a major league fireballer — and how this same principle drives elite performance in an AI swing analyzer.

Tim Lincecum, who pitches for the San Francisco Giants, may demonstrate this concept better than any other pitcher.
His ability to generate incredible clubhead speed — or in his case, pitch velocity — despite his slight build speaks to the effectiveness of his uncanny separation and trail-side loading. (It’s no wonder he’s called “The Freak!”)
