Position at home

[Dave Davies]

Another option for plays at the plate would be to initially line up at point of plate extended (2nd base ext.).

Read the play, specifically, path of the ball and position of F2. If you read a regular tag at the plate, move to 1st base ext. If you read the catcher setting up for a swipe tag, you can easily get to 3rd base ext.

The key for me is that I never pick a specific place to stand. Just like adjusting to see plays on the bases, we have to adjust to each specific play at the plateas it happens.
