"Fly Ball" Drill

August 2000

By: Eddie Holder

Equipment Needed: Ball and Glove

Step 1

Line players up in a single line. First player in line faces opposite direction than coach.

Step 2

Ball is thrown in the air with player facing opposite direction. The coach will call the player's name aloud. That player turns and finds the blind ball in the air.

This is a super drill to improve both infielders and outfielders on finding and reacting fast to pop flys.
