Youth
Baseball Drills - Watch the Ball Through Drill
| Purpose: |
Teach
players to watch the ball through as baserunners, before taking
the next base. |
| Procedure: |
Line
up a player at first base, shortstop, second base and in
shallow left, center and right fields. Line-up remaining
players in foul territory at first base. Start off the drill
with a runner on first base. The coach hits to one of the
fielders. If it's a fly ball to left field the runner at
first should go half way between first and second and watch
the ball to see if the fielder catches it. If the fielder
catches it, then the runner should return to first. If the
fielder misses it then the runner needs to continue to second
base. Have the fielders play the ball live. Continue the
drill with different baserunning situations and hitting
to different areas of the field.
