43Drills

This drill is useful for younger players since it keeps everyone involved. It combines pitching for accuracy (we want the batter to actually bunt the ball), bunting, and double plays on both sides of the infield. The coach near the mound rolls a ball towards the fielders on the side to which the ball is bunted. The home-plate coach acts as a backstop for the pitcher and tracks down those occasional wild ones.

Goals

# Pitcher - throw strikes
# Hitter - bunting to each target area
# Fielders - knowing coverage’s and pick-ups for double plays

There are 53 panels in this sequence.
