Reply to "Wheel Play"

Best use of wheel play I have ever seen was this fall. Coach goes out to talk to players to make sure everyone knows where they are going and what they are doing, makes hand gestures and everything. 0-0 count, pitcher toes rubber, and everybody takes off to their places as hard as they can go. SS to 3B, and 2B to 1B, etc.... Pitcher steps off rubber. Everyone goes back to normal place, pitcher steps on again, everybody takes off, baserunner follows SS, except this time 2B instead of going to 1b, goes to 2b, pitcher steps off and bam, runner picked off without a pitch being thrown. Everybody on the field, in the stands, etc... were watching with their jaws on the floor. This play may only work a couple of times a year, but hopefully they would be the right times.
