Orioles first baseman Chris Davis has 33 home runs in 2013. Here they are:

It’s mesmerizing. Note the variety of locations and pitch types.

First try to find the fastballs on the outside half of the plate. There are at least six. Most of them he drills over the left-field wall, but a couple he still manages to drive to straight away center or even pull out of the ballpark because he’s so incredibly strong.

Now find the breaking balls on the inner half. There are about three or four, at least a couple of which appear to be good pitches breaking sharply. But Davis pounds them.

Keep going on and on like that until you’ve found a pitch anywhere near the strike zone that Chris Davis won’t manage to knock over the fence. Then try to master it and pinpoint your location, then try to throw it past Chris Davis in 2013. Good luck with that.

Davis is on pace for 60 home runs, a plateau only five hitters have reached before. He’s leading the Majors in slugging, extra-base hits, at bats per home run, and homers.

Which is your favorite? Ours is… all of them, actually.
