What tip could you offer to avoid or does that just happen sometime?

The BJ should be handling the ball on just about every play except a short run up the middle. It is is job to take the pitch from the wing and send it in to the umpire. If he is doing this on evey play he is forced to be in position. The wing, BJ, and umpire should always be forming a triangle around the ball.
