One thing that I do is watch the pitcher's eyes as he's coming in towards the plate. They will tell you where the ball is, if it's being thrown to him, and where the throw it going. On oddly shaped backstops, sometimes the ball takes a turn when hits it. And yeah, sometimes the ball is at your back, and you have kneel down. I've done it.
Reading the defensive players eyes is very overlooked, and not often taught. Yet, it's very beneficial.
