As a former 1b, In studied the great 1b and found books on the position.

1. Watch the range of your 2b, is he quicker to his right or to his left?

2. Know the strength of the rf and CF arm to establish your "cutoff" position.

3. Always remind your pitcher if you are playing behind the runner.

4. Practice a "full stretch" on low throws. Does the SS throw rise or sink?

5. Remind your teammates the # of outs.

6. Hold the runner by taking 1/2 the bag forcing his slide outward.

7. Charge the batter on a bunt situation.

8. Enjoy the challenge to learn.
