learning to stretch TO meet throw.
This Is particularly valuable on
close plays where the decision is often
a matter of inches.
On fast men it is always advisable
to reach the bag as soon as possible,
so as TO position yourself for the
throw which may be a hurried one,
and incidentally give the fielder max
ing the play target.
If a first baseman takes a throw
standing erect, the ball must travel
from four to six feet farther than if
he stretched out to meet it,
The elapsed time is often the differ
ence between safe and out.
Learn 70 stretch. Go out to meet
the ball rather than wait for 1t to
arrive.
