MOI or Moment of Inertia: What Is It?

In this sense, it is similar to the concept of torque, and is measured in respect to a single “pivot” point. In the case of bats, the pivot point is the hitter’s hands, and thus, all MOI measurements are calculated from a single point (6.0” from the tip of the knob) that approximates the central axis of an average hitter’s hands during the swing.
