Ignite Baseball on Instagram: "Today we’re looking at Alejandro Kirk’s swing. He has one of my favorite swing examples for young hitters. His forward move is simple; he rotates very well. He keeps his head on the ball every time, and he sets great angles with his upper body. What’s not to love here? He was extremely fun to watch this postseason. Hopefully he has many great years ahead of him. ⸻ 2025 Regular Season Stats • Batting average: .282  • Home runs: 15  • Runs batted in: 76  • On-base
