  • First and Third
    Cutoffs and Relays • Every player on the field, including the pitcher, has a responsibility and a place to be on every cutoff and relay situation. • The voice commands we use are: We will not say anything if we want the ball to come through to the base we are directing to – we will say the number of the base that we wants the ball “cut and relayed” to (2-2-2,3-3-3,4-4-4) • “Cut” means “cut the ball” and “control the play” • The catcher will direct the play as it develops to home plate. • The third baseman will direct the play as it develops to third base. • On a double, possible triple, the trail infielder will direct the play for the lead infielder. • We want the outfielders to make longer throw and “hit the first cutoff man in the chest.” • Infielders STOP moving when the outfielder picks up the ball. We want the outfielder to throw to a stationary target: open and give with good throws. NEVER jump or short hop relay throw. • All sure doubles, possible triples, with nobody on first base, we line up with a double cut to third. • All SURE doubles, possible triples, with nobody on first base, we ine up with a double cut to home plate. • Trail infielder lines up the play and directs the play. • Infielders must know your outfielders arm strength and position yourself accordingly. • Trail infielder must position yourself to catch a high throw and/or a throw that will short hop the lead infielder so you can catch it on one bounce.

  • Ripken Baseball Camps and Clinics
    Basic Fundamentals of Outfield Play Outfield play, especially at the youth levels, often gets overlooked. Even though the outfielder is not directly involved in the majority of plays, coaches need to stress the importance of the position. An outfielder has to be able to maintain concentration throughout the game, because there may only be one or two hit balls that come directly to that player during the course of the contest. Those plays could be the most important ones. There also are many little things an outfielder can do -- backing up throws and other outfielders, cutting off balls and keeping runners from taking extra bases, and throwing to the proper cutoffs and bases – that don’t show up in a scorebook, but can really help a team play at a high level. Straightaway Positioning All outfielders – all fielders for that matter – must understand the concept of straightaway positioning. For an outfielder, the best way to determine straightaway positioning is to reference the bases. By drawing an imaginary line from first base through second base and into left field, the left fielder can determine where straightaway left actually is. The right fielder can do the same by drawing an imaginary line from third base through second base and into the outfield. The center fielder can simply use home plate and second base in a similar fashion. Of course, the actual depth that determines where straightaway is varies from age group to age group. Outfielders will shift their positioning throughout the game depending on the situation, the pitcher and the batter. But, especially at the younger ages, an outfielder who plays too close to the line or too close to another fielder can 1 create a huge advantage for opposing hitters.

  • What Are Scouts and College Coaches Looking for in Outfielders?
    What are Scouts and College Coaches Looking for in Outfielders? By Justin Cronk & Jason Ronai As the last line of defense on a baseball field, outfielders play a crucial role in determining the number of runs the opposing team scores throughout a game and the number of bases a runner advances on a given hit. Although there are many factors that can determine the outcome of a game, outfield defense is one that is often overlooked or discarded as ultimately irrelevant by the layperson. Given the fact that many contests throughout the course of a year are decided by a poor read on a ball, a bad throw or a missed cut-off man, it is ironic that outfield defense is arguably the most under-taught aspect of high school baseball. As a result of this general lack of focus on detailed outfield play, it becomes difficult for high school outfielders to know exactly what they can work on to be more marketable in the eye of the professional scout or college coach. While offensive prowess is obviously very important for a scout or coach in assessing the overall ability of an outfielder, defensive aptitude is equally significant in their evaluation. There are many skills that are vital components of an outfielder's game. Speed: Great speed allows an outfielder to track down difficult fly balls or cut off hard hit ground balls in the gap. Some outfielders, such as former major leaguer Deion Sanders, have great "recovery" speed, which allows them to get away with a poor read or first step, but still recover in time to make the play.
