Base Work

In higher level ball, the bases can be more challenging to work due to the speed of the game. Things can explode on you in a hurry. Remember the most important mechanic you can use is your timing. Pause, Read, React. Most calls that bring out a coach are a result of calling the play too soon. I get to my spot, get set, focus on the bag, listen for the pop, analyze what I have, and then make the call. It is also important to " sell " your call. Be emphatic on bangers, so you leave no doubt in their minds.
