Figure Four Technique
A good lead for the base runner is important but having a good move back to first if a pitcher tries to pick you off is even more important. In this drill, players learn the basic techniques for getting back to the base safely.
This video is one of over twenty great baseball sliding drills in our training series, Baseball Sliding: Slide Like a Pro.
This looks really great and something coaches can easily use for drills with the younger kids. Your video segments were perfect… quick and to the point.
