Compilation
If this video stacks several distinct drills back-to-back, split it into individual, draggable drills — each with its own clip, steps, and tags.
Coach's take
Great for building: Clean glove-to-hand transfer mechanics and efficient shuffle footwork for quick, accurate throws after fielding.
Builds toward Making quick, accurate throws from the infield after fielding a ground ball, enabling double plays and preventing runners from advancing a grade up.

How to run it
Perform 10-15 reps, then switch the shuffle direction or throw to a different base.Setup
- 1Place three cones in a triangular shape, roughly 2-3 feet apart, with one cone in front (center), one to the left, and one to the right.
- 2Place a baseball directly in front of the center cone.
- 3Player starts in an athletic fielding stance, directly in front of the baseball and center cone, glove ready.
Run the drill
- 1Field the baseball cleanly with two hands, getting low to the ground.
- 2Transfer the ball quickly from the glove to the throwing hand.
- 3Perform a shuffle step, driving off the back foot and stepping around the right cone (for a right-handed thrower) to gain momentum towards the throwing target.
- 4Execute a simulated throw towards first base, maintaining a strong, balanced finish.
- 5Return to the starting athletic fielding stance for the next rep.
Coaching cues
- Stay low.
- Soft hands.
- Quick transfer.
- Shuffle and throw.
- Feet to target.
Common mistakes
- Standing too tall when fielding the ball, losing athletic base.
- Slow transfer from glove to throwing hand, wasting time.
- Taking extra, inefficient steps or a crow hop instead of a clean shuffle.
- Not getting feet properly aligned towards the target for the throw.
Progressions
- Have a coach or partner roll or soft-toss the ball to the player.
- Add a throwing target (e.g., net, bucket, another player) to throw to after the shuffle.
- Vary the starting position of the ball to simulate different fielding angles.
