Some of the flaws include not fielding the baseball out in front, problems with creating the proper body angle, flipping the glove over, not staying down on the ball and more.

with Scott Stricklin, Kent State University Head Coach; 2006 Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year; 2008 & 2006 Mid-American Conference regular season titles
Because weather may push baseball practice inside, Scott Stricklin gives you this instructional baseball DVD as a handy guide to improving infield play in the warmth of your own gymnasium. Use these infield drills to sharpen your practices and prepare for the season ahead. Loosening the arm through throwing drills is a big part of the warm-up. Throwing progression increases in stages of 30 feet, up to 150 feet. Throwing on a line develops good throwing habits. At 150 feet, players begin to work back to 45 feet, where the quick toss drill is implemented. The face-off drill is designed for infielders and catchers to help hand-eye coordination. The backhand and short hop drills "wake hands up" and develop soft hands and short hop skills. The Square drill uses five players and works on underhand flips and proper footwork. Double play feeds work on the 6-4-3 double play. The 4-6-3 double play demonstrates the key coaching points for the second baseman and shortstop. Adding the first baseman, the 3-6-1 and 3-6-3 double play drill provide the same fundamentals, but begin from the first base side. Moving to second base, Stricklin covers the teaching points while making the tag at second. Using a bare hand is stressed in the run down drill. Using three or four players, the Rocket Relay works on glove side catch and relay throws. The outside players execute tags and quick throws. This baseball DVD is a great teaching tool to get ready for the next game or the next season.
This baseball video DVD is based on the same drills featured at Baseball World s Training Center in Orlando, Fla. These drills focus on five areas to make your team stronger. Those areas include: Arm Strength, running speed, practice organization, infield/outfield skills and quickness/agility. 1990. 47 minutes.
with Jim Dietz, former San Diego State University Head Coach, ABCA Hall of Fame 2002
In this baseball video, Jim Dietz lays out the practical steps of organizing a championship defensive practice that is efficient and keeps everyone involved. Coach Dietz strongly emphasizes the importance of a set daily routine so every player knows each drill and achieves continuity in each baseball practice. Dietz's goal for each defensive practice is safety, concentration, and pride, which he emphasizes in six defensive drills through discussion and on-field demonstration. His baseball drills start with the outfielders and work into the infielders, pitchers, and catchers. Areas covered include outfield/ infield communication, relays, spin-turns, rundowns, defending the running game, bunt defense positions and execution, pitch-outs and pick-offs. In addition, a game called "Speedball," invented at SDSU, shows how to add a little fun to your baseball practice while still maintaining the purpose. Dietz shows how to create and plan an effective and efficient defensive baseball practice that achieves a flow and a daily routine to help you be organized and get the most out of your practice and players at any level.
