"C" mechanics on a throw home from OF

[CecilOne]

The most important thing is to face the ball as soon as you can turn coming in and stay with it, no matter how many pivots it takes. After the throw home, back-pedal to just in front of the baseline if you are further in. That should be out of the way of most plays and puts you near the remaining lead runners to cover subsequent plays. After all, we're not supposed to be always right on top of plays anyway. I understand Sam's idea of near the circle, but I think near the baseline gives you a better angle on tag plays, especially throwbacks from home to a base.
BTW, I loved my 1-9-2-6 DP as PU alone, even though I had to fill the hole I drilled in the ground with three pivots.

DON'T QUIT - WORKOUT. We need you.
