Instructions

The second baseman fields a routine ground ball and executes a smooth, firm underhand toss to the shortstop covering the bag. The emphasis is on "showing the ball" early, keeping the hand steady, and following through toward the target. This fundamental skill is the cornerstone of the standard 4-6-3 double play.
