The kid is tilting his head even before the ball is tossed and these tosses are thigh high. Your photo is of a ball that is probably a slow breaking pitch that will be below the knees at contact and he is well out in front of the pitch. I would say he was fooled on this pitch since he doesn't need to tilt to hit this pitch. This photo reminds me of how Adam Dunn swings. If he wasn't so big and strong, he wouldn't even be in the Minors, too many strike outs and for the reason I gave. He has trouble making adjustments to off speed, but they kind of let that stuff slide if you can hit 30 plus HRs. But, hey, it's just my opinion.
