Great infield players have the ability to create double plays or even triple plays.� � There are many drills that can help improve the infield play. Drills like the rolled ground ball seem quite simple. Players assume the position with a wide base stance, butt down and hands out. First balls are hit soft and easy enough to master, as the drill progresses you hit the ball harder and more unorthodox. Making it harder on the infidel player to make the play. After much repetition, the players' confidence and ability to make big plays will grow. Catching drills and backhand drills are also great for practice and pre-game exercises.� � In this course, Ed Servais talks about the importance of having good defense in the infield.
