the fielder scoops up the ball as the runner approaches third. The Catcher has
aligned the cut off man for a straight ball path from the fielder to home plate.
Center fielder drills the ball to the cutoff man with all his might. Cutoff man
does the two step shuffle, catch, shuffle throw and off goes the frozen rope to
home in plenty of time for the tag.
In modern baseball from youth thru
seniors, moments like these are proudly displayed in flash on Myspace and

Video and Blogging hit the information highway at lighting speeds to announce
the play of the day.
What many fail to see or talk about in their Myspace
feeds is what actually made this play successful. Was it merely the excellent
throwing arms of the players? Was the runner a bit on the slow side when
rounding the bases?
Success is based on a series of practiced events that
culminate in one play. First, the fielder controls the ball while the cutoff man
raises their hands to make a good target and keeps his eyes on the fielder. The
catcher is guiding the relay man to make a straight path for the ball to follow.
Now comes the relay, simple as a catch throw, catch and tag.
To prepare
the relay man for what they need to accomplish it really breaks down to the
basics

catch and throw. Added is the excitement of the game and the rush the players
put upon themselves to complete the process quickly.
Not all the
different from warm up. Players are standing with their goal of throwing a ball
to their teammate to the comfortable catch area between the shoulders and above
the belly button and below the ears.
Now comes the dance of the relay
man. Their first responsibility is to catch the ball. Then turn the head and
hips to acquire the target. In our case, the catcher. As the core is wound they
finish their turn and release the ball towards the target. The dance is where
only one portion of this entire event goes awry from the warm up.
So much
of baseball is situational. Even the situations themselves have variations
within variations. Aside from playing hundreds of games to gain the experience
of those situations or viewing hours of Myspace video feeds there are drills
that cover the basics without having to go into practice stifling
situations.
We have already covered the warm up and the goal of throwing.
To add the twist, set up a relay with three players. Spaced 30 to 40 feet apart,
the man in the middle practices the relay dance. This is where the coaching
comes in. View the footwork and core loading. Make corrections as needed but try
to keep the ball moving. With the player concentrating on the catch and
throw

following instruction during this time will help the player from compound
information. Compounding information forces the player to react as opposed to
think about their movements, which is also called muscle memory.
For
teams with players under 18, everyone should have a stint in the middle. Who you
may think will be a catcher for life could ultimately become a world class short
stop. It is best to keep in mind that all players play all positions until they
are either on scholarship or paid to play.
With all your players having
the dance figured out, it is time to add some twists. Creating relay races are a
great way to add excitement and more of a game situation to the drill. Create
conditions that engage the players for several minutes.
Relay the ball
down and back then rotate the players. The first relay team to rotate through
all the players wins. As there are only 3 to a side

you may consider prizes for the winning side such as flavored water or small
packages of sunflower seeds. It is not the prize that counts, it is the
victory.
To work alignment into the drill, after player 1 releases the
ball, have them shift 5 to 10 feet left or right while maintaining their
distance from the relay man. As the relay man releases the throw to player
3

player 1 begins giving direction to the relay man; shout left or right to bring
the player into alignment. Player 3 throws back to the relay and repeats what
player 1 has done.
This drill takes up quite a bit of room but makes for
a sure fire way to practice the dance with more situations padded into the
exercise. Add to all the commotion is that your fielders are now having to work
a little harder at spotting the relay man as they are on the move.
At
the end of the day if the players had fun, the coaches had fun, everyone leaves
happy, a little tired and wanting to return again. As the coach you alone make
practices as fun and exciting as going to the circus or as dreary as doing
multiplication tables. Opt for the circus and you will be the pied piper for the
team where the players and parents will gladly follow.
