With no one on, come around F2 & B1 (3B side) to the mound and get an angle. Head for 2B if it is down in the OF. If there is a runner on, work the 3B-line and get the best angle possible.

Otherwise, work 1B & 3B-lines extended as you would on fair/foul and move quickly to get an angle.

In 1-Man mechanics angle is the KEY as you will never be able to get the distance you want.

Work your calls in order:
- Ball/Strike
- Fair/Foul
- Catch/No Catch
- Safe/Out

Finally... make sure you have some adult beverages (if you are legal) cooling at home for after the game.
