Ichiro's Poor 2011: Let's! go To! the Video! Tape!

=== Aiki Sensei Dept. ===

Ichiro has taken pleasure in the idea that nobody can understand his swing through observation:  "They might notice that the position of my knee has changed, but they would not understand why."  
His book is full of remarks to this effect.  They can't copy me, says he, because they'll never understand me.  And you can't understand me by observing me.
 
Unfortunately for Batting-Champ-San, aiki dynamics are public domain  ... :- )
 

The following four frames are side-by-sides of two homers, one from Aug. 22, 2011 and one from Sept. 12, 2009.  The older, 2009, shots are the 2nd and 4th frames.
