What should the first baseman do in this situation? Hint, it’s not trail the runner. The first baseman is the second cut in this double cut situation. The RF comes in to cover second base. While many coaches teach on a double cut home to have the 1B trail the runner so second base is covered but we have the RF come in so the 1B can cut it off early instead of the throw going all the way home. #baseballcoach #baseball #baseballmom | Baseball Instincts

The smartest third baseman makes this play in this situation. We have a runner on second base and a sacrifice bunt on third base. This is bunted hard enough that it pulls the third baseman in to make the play, but the batter runner is a leadoff runner and fast. The third baseman has no play. It is up to the shortstop to come in behind the runner going to third, and the third baseman should pump fake the throw to first base and back pick the runner at third. #baseballcoach #baseball #baseballlife

Every first baseman needs to know this! In this situation there’s a runner on first base and a hard ground ball hit right to the first baseman. It’s important to note that as a baserunner you do not have to go. The first baseman made a heads up play and turned to second noticing the runner didn’t go. But here’s where things can get dicey. If the first baseman does not tag the runner first, he would not get the double play. Smart enough, he tagged the runner and then stepped on the base. #basebal

Tell me again how the first baseman trails the runner to second base on a double cut 4 hmmm 🤔 In this situation we have a runner on third base and an extra basehit down the RF line. Now this is an advanced double cut technique. The second baseman goes out as the relay and the 1B backs him up. The SS is in a read situation at second base in case he needs to pull a Jeter. Now, in this situation, the runner had home easy, and so the 2B came up firing to third base. Any time there’s a ball to the f

Every right fielder and first baseman should know what to do with a runner on second base and a hard one hopper hit to the right fielder. There’s only two options. 1. Come up aggressive to throw the runner out at first base. 2. If no play there then it’s easy for 1B to drop in and become the cut home which allows the play to be made on either the runner from second or the batter runner. #baseballcoach #baseball #baseballlife #fypage #foryou #foryoupage #baseballdad #baseballmom #baseballcoaching

Why do we see it look like first baseman chase the baserunner to second base? In this advanced baseball cut-off/relay strategy, there’s only one time when the first baseman chases, or trails the batter runner to second base. With no runner on first base, that means no one on, or runners just on second and third, when the ball is hit to the fence it’s a double cut or tandem cut situation. The MIF go out as the relay and back-up and the first baseman trails the runner to second because the play wi

What would you do as the first baseman with a runner on second base and a ball hit to to the right center field fence? Leave your answer in the comments 🔥 Anytime the ball is hit to the fence it’s an automatic double cut or tandem cut situation and the play is set to be 3 bases ahead of the lead runner. The runner on second will score and so the batter runner is the lead runner. So the plays at third. Some coaches think if it’s hit to the right side just have the second baseman be the cut but t

The Baseball Explainer on Instagram: "@jackbit_official, In a 2022 Ole Miss Rebels baseball game, a heads-up baserunning sequence saw a player take three bases in one extended play, advancing from first to second, then to third, and ultimately scoring without a hit driving him in thanks to defensive miscues and aggressive judgment on the basepaths. The play unfolded when the runner reached first and, after escaping a near pickoff, continued advancing as fielders lost positioning — with the third

Coach Dex | Baseball Defense & Offense Situations on Instagram: "Righty’s can pick off to third base just like lefty’s can to first base. It’s risky, but here’s how to do it successfully and get a sloppy base runner out at third. 1. Third baseman, never hold the runner. You have to be off the bag. 2. Pitchers, pick off just like a lefty would to first base. 3. Third baseman, you better break to the corner of the base, don’t straddle the bag. If you don’t break, it will be called a balk. 4. The r
