Are you a left handed thrower or a right handed thrower?

I can only speak of footwork around the bag for lefties since I am one, but it is important to read the throw before stretching out to get it. Waiting until the ball is in the air will allow you to place your feet in a better position to receive the ball. I.E. if a throw is coming from the SS and goes towards home, (for a lefty) the left foot has to be on the front corner. But, say on a throw from 3B that goes towards right field, the left foot needs to be on the back corner of the bag based on how far behind the bag the throw is...
Hope this makes sense and helps!
