i did SP for a few years before i got involved in FP. since the majority of the guys who play SS in SP either played baseball growing up or at least watch baseball on tv, they know what the routine plays are. i find many of the girls, especially at the 10U 12U 14U dont know the basics. i dont know if thats a result of bad coaching or just not being around the game as much as boys, but i never thought of that until i had the situation i described above in my first FP game.
theres a "big" SP tourny here in a month... 1 ump system. if theres a runner on 2nd and a gb to the SS, unless the ball is hit to his right and unless theres some crazy disparity in the runners, im assuming hes throwing to 1st and using the mechanic as if no one is on base bc thats simply where that throw is going.
