Ground ball is hit right back to the pitcher. What do you do?

A. Immediately take off at full speed and try to score.

B. Freeze and watch the play develop.

C. Go back to 3B.

D. Fake a break to the plate.

E. None of the above.

This was one of the questions we used on a test players took. The majority of college freshman would get this one wrong based on the way we wanted to play.

I go with A in every situation, if they go for you with no/1 outs, you try to stay in play long enough to get runners to 2nd and 3rd
