im a second basemen and taking cutoffs from the outfield is definitely confusing when it comes to double cuts or trailing th ss also getting taken out at 2b doesnt feel too good with metal spikes

I think everyone understands this stuff lol, and normally when there's a ball hit to right field and there's a play at third, the shotstop will actually cut that throw off, but nice video. And for 'xproskier' when there's a throw down. To second on a steal, the second baseman will cover the bag if there's a right handed batter. During warmups, they usually just take turns each inning.

I've always been used to SS and LO but 2nd is a sincere challenge to me.
