Sorry this is a high school field. Only about 12-15 feet to back stop, about 320 down the line. We have a few fields like this. We also have a ones with plenty of room. We also have one with plenty of room but the outfield slopes some down towards the outfield fence that when standing at home it gets tuff to see the line, even with my height of 6'5".

I would would say back up as far as you can. Treat it like a tag of first when you are in the middle. As ball is in the air, look to see if runner is taggin. If he is, watch the catch. As soom as it is touched/caught, look back to see if runner is still right there at the bag. But that is my thought. Still curious about other peoples. Infact what is taught at pro school?? I would imagine they cover this.
