Anyone have any general tips for first movement when the ball goes over your head to left-center? The CCA manual wants you to stay outside on a single, but come in on fly balls and line drives. A few times, I felt out of position during the play whether I came inside the diamond or stayed out. (I might have been coming too deep towards 1B on balls that ended up getting caught.)
Should I read "single" to mean a sharp grounder to the outfield? Thanks all.

As far as where to go... think about the throwing lanes....it keeps me out of trouble, even at my size. Balls over my head in C, I come in the diamond...stay closer to 2nd, and adjust to the play from there. The faster you get in, the more time you will have to adjust to the play.
