FungoHighly Regarded and Beloved Old Timer

I was reading an article describing a baseball player as one that need to work on his "short" game. (Not golf

) What skills would you assume this sportswriter was making reference to?

Never throw over cut off man
play the score and avoid the tie or go ahead run to get to scoring position, when throwing from outfield.
