Er, I don't think so, Fritz.

True in FED, false in OBR.

Point of Emphasis for Coaching
 

I really appreciate this discussion. For coaching my players I teach them to run through the bag and break down to the right before they look for an overthrow. That way there is less possibility for an umpire to judge that they are making a move to 2b. If there is an overthrow they can still advance and, if it's not thrown far enough away, their motion will naturally take them to the bag after the break down.

Have you all seen this in your games (regardless of FED, NCAA, or OBR)? Do you see any potential problems in teaching this method of overrun, breakdown, and return to base?

personally, i think it's over coaching to a point...if your runners aren't making a legit attempt to second base...the direction that you have to turn only perpetuates the myth...because there's nothing that says your runner has to turn a certain way after over running 1B.

Try a coaching forum for this kind of question.
