This video was just a quick test to learn more about keyframe character animation.  I got the fully-rigged model from www.lostpencil.com.  (Be sure to head over there for some great free modeling resources.)

I started with a short video clip of my pitching motion.  I think went through the reference video and set key frames through the character.  I'd say the motion is about 90-95% complete.  It matches pretty closely but could use a little more tweaking if this was going to be used in a full-blown project.

It was a good lesson and opened my eyes to just how tedious the process can be.  A clip like this would be very well suited to a motion capture studio, but believe it or not, I don't have a full mocap setup in my apartment.
