What makes a good first baseman?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I never played baseball. My son is almost 16 and 6'3" tall. He's primarily a pitcher, but has never played on such high profile teams that he doesn't hit and play the field as well. His middle school coach pegged him as an outfielder, but now coaches look at him and assume he knows 1st because of his height. He did reasonably well there during the HS (JV) season, but obviously has lots more to learn if he wants a chance on varsity. Just curious as to what you all think makes a really good 1st baseman
Thanks in advance for any insights you can offer!
