The Colorado Rockies are using video iPods to improve their hitters’ swing, an unusual application for the popular devices.
“It’s the wave of the future,” Rockies general manager Dan O’Dowd said. “I was blown away by it.”

The ability to hold 150 hours of video and display it on a portable screen has made the iPod a perfect tool for helping hitters understand their swings.

“It has everything right there for you. It’s great, especially on the road,” said Rockies outfielder Matt Holliday. “You can look at your swings when you were going good. And it only takes a couple of minutes.”
