🚨 MLB Defense: Bucket Tagging Drill • Let the ball travel - Don't reach for it • Catch the ball over the base & drop the tag down • Smother all picks right into the tag ⭐️ Catch the ball first. Mistakes happen when we try to tag too soon.

Most important skill set for infielders? Throwing! … Period. All else (hands/feet/range, etc) become irrelevant if you are not an elite thrower. This includes arm strength, BUT EVEN MORE IMPORTANT IS ACCURACY. Problem is… less than 5% of all HS players are elite throwers.
