Of course on a fly ball down the lines you first have to determine fair or foul and then hustle towards the next play. Keep in mind you will be inside the diamond and ALWAYS KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE BALL or you are going to get hit. As far as those of you who think all SP is is a bunch of old drunk guys hitting pop flys get on the field with the field with the Men at an ASA or USSSA-A or B tournament and then come back on and tell me how boring it is.
Yes, I know that skill level is a whole different world.
