Double play work up drill is easy to understand and learn. The coach normally stands as the pitcher while you and the other players can stand on different positions. Normally, you would have eight defensive players at the field, and if you are left with more, the rest will be hitters. In field drill allows the players to double play. Double play simply refers to be in varied positions in the field and can throw baseball from different angles.
As explained above, the players can take different positions in the field, while you can move towards pitching job. Normally, fungo or baseball is used in the game.
Execution of this drill is pretty simple. The third baseman in the field will start the game by hitting the ball. He will throw the ball to the second player in the field and that’s how double play initiate. If the player hits the ball bad or misses it, he would definitely suffers the loss. In this particular case, the player will go in the first base that means the finishing point at the line. This will probably a lucky situation for the other players as they will be awarded with a chance to move ahead.
The player who has been the longest at any other position in the field, will be replaced on the vacant position. All the participants will continue hitting the ball at two different positions. This is same as any other play in in-field baseball. To give each player an equal opportunity, we suggest you should give everyone a single hit in the game. So if, a short stop goes to the first base, you should hit him the ground ball again.
