Batting Stance Guy gets a job on Fox Sports Network

by Bob Sassone, posted Jul 20th 2009 4:27PM

I'm proud to live in a country where a guy who imitates the batting stances of major league baseball players can get gigs. Gar Ryness, The Batting Stance Guy, has signed a deal with Fox Sports Network do create content for regional coverage of ball games. He's also going to be on Kansas City Royals telecasts.

Here's a clip of his recent appearance on The Late Show. He's a very funny guy as well as doing great batting stances (his Kevin Youklis is better than his Manny Ramirez).

Wow, someone with the "least marketable skill in America", gets a job because of it.

I don't understand the fascination with this guy. I guess I don't really understand the humor behind it all that much. He's an alright guy, but I don't really find him "funny."

I'm a huge baseball guy too, so I thought I would love him when I first heard about him, but I just wasn't that impressed.

Also, his short stint on the MLB network was not very good. The guys couldn't stop laughing when what he was doing wasn't all that funny.
