Baseball training: Infield

in #sport7 years ago

The inner frame of baseball we can call it the first defensive wall, placed on the playing field. This is where most of the action takes place, since most of the players, both defensive and offensive, are inside it to start the execution of the game.

Within the infield are distributed in different areas about 6 players (within the entire field of play there are 9 players on the defensive), these talking defensively, since yes we counted those who would be on offense we could have maximum 10 players inside the inner court (with runners in the bases and one player batting).

Being the area of ​​the field with more activity during the game, it is necessary every practice day to perform exercises that help the boys to solve certain situations that could arise during a game. That is why my boys, from the smallest to the largest, prepartos activities and review exercises, which simulate the game action.

The infield is divided into 6 areas that are occupied by each of the players of the defense, and each player that covers it is given the name of the area to identify it. The areas are: pitcher or pitcher (1), catcher or catcher (2), first baseman (3), second baseman (4), third baseman (5) and shortstop or shortstop (6). These players in the defense have the task of all their means not to let pass the ball that has been hit or batted by the offensive player, put them out or out of the circulation of the bases.

The plays that we always review during training, first is to catch the batted ball and throw it to first base to be able to make out to the batter runner. Another that is undoubtedly very important since it could mean taking the entry faster or simply having a disastrous inning for the amount of race that the rival team could do, is the double play, so fundamental that you must practice all the possible double kill plays that we would find during the game. The simplest would be with the first base occupied and rolled or rolled to any of the bases the player who catches the ball must throw to second base and that this must touch the base with the ball in his hand, before the runner to do it forced out and this will throw until the first to take out the batter runner.

The double play or double slaughter is the most insistent play I make practice the infield players, so that they can find the necessary times of their playmate and so during a game this type of play goes perfectly.
