Ball Bag Backup

Coaching notes

Key point

Around the horn, the third baseman's throw must beat the runner to second — a strong, accurate feed to the inside of the bag.

Drill

3B-to-2B-to-1B reps; the second baseman works the footwork to receive on the run and clear the sliding runner.

Watch for

A throw to the runner side of second that handcuffs the pivot man — feed it to the inside corner.
