This drill is designed to increase a player's awareness of the outfield fence when tracking down deep fly balls.
Done properly, this drill will take away an outfielder's fear of running into the wall en route to making a catch.
Equipment
Gloves
Baseballs (1-2)
Fungo (optional)
Pitching Machine (optional)
Description
The players should line-up single file facing the coach approximately 6 to 8 feet away.
The coach tosses a baseball straight into the air while the outfielder performs the drill.
Tips
After the players feel comfortable toss the baseball so it lands just behind the outfielders head. This will force the outfielders to move back and get into position to throw.
