Reply to "HS Pop Times"

What about the centerfielder who backs up the middle infielder and also the pitcher and first baseman who has to hold the runner on? All are supporting cast of the catcher in picking off the runner. I don't believe the catcher "thinks" about his teammate's talent or lack of talent in this situation, his job is to catch and throw. While we all know picking off the runner takes more than a strong accurate throw from the catcher, we have to give credit where credit is due. The measured "pop time" is the result of the catcher's actions.
