Baseball around the clock

When you are playing catch the name of the game is catch, not chase or pick up, it is catch.  So how do you play catch the right way? First you play often and second you work on throwing the ball to a person.  The person who does not have the ball should give the person throwing the ball a target, this helps concentration and focus.  You should always throw to something, do not just throw it in a general region, look at a target and try to hit that target.  In a game when you have to throw someone out you have to throw to a base and more precisely you have to throw to a person who has to stay close to the base so get used to hitting a target when you are playing catch.

Receiving the ball during catch:

When you are playing catch and you do not have the ball your eyes should always be on your target, this is for safety reasons.  Also when you receive the ball you should always try to catch the ball with two hands and have the ball in between your shoulders.  What does this do?  First, two hands is proper form and second catching the ball between your shoulders makes you move your feet like you will have to do in a game on a throw that isn’t on target and it is makes catching the ball easier because it is right in front of your face.  Obviously if the ball is too high or too far away you will have to adjust but you will still have to move your feet.  Do not play catch with poor form, it creates bad habits.  You always want to be creating good habits and playing catch properly will allow you to do so.  Step and throw to a target and catch the ball with two hands between your shoulders.  Go out and have some fun playing the best game of all time.
