THIRD BASE 1-0-1:
DEPTH Find your comfort zone, Big monster hitters, give them a little room. Little left handed hitters move up for that slap on the ground,
PUT YOURSELF IN THE PLAY
RUNNERS ON FIRST & SECOND Move close to the bag for a possible double play. PUT YOURSELF IN THE PLAY
A ball hit to your left, go get it, all of the throws will be in front of you, any play for the shortstop will be behind him.
TO GET SET: Step into the set position and touch the ground with both hands with every pitch. It will be easier to get down (muscle memory)
TELL YOUR PITCHER: To let you know when he is going jam a hitter or try to get them to hit to you.
DON'T BABY THE THROW: If you do that you could throw it away, try to put a hole in the firstbaseman's chest. He won't be hurt or frightened.
Practice to where everything becomes muscle memory. Don't dwell on any balls hit by you, you will field them or you won't.
THERE ARE NO FRACTIONS AT THIRD BASE.
THROW FROM THE OUTFIELD: Set up 3 to 5 feet up the 2nd base line. Give the Ump an easier call. (they've been known to blow one)
