Rhythm & Timing 🔑

Most infielders rush…
or they’re late.
Both lead to errors.

Great infielders move with rhythm and arrive on time.

âś… Controlled tempo into the ball
âś… Left foot timing as you field
âś… Quiet feet = clean exchange
âś… On time = no panic

If your timing is off… everything speeds up.

Fix it with these 👇
✅ PVC Pipe Drill → feel the timing, then field normal
✅ Step Overs → control your tempo into the ball
✅ Flamingo Drill → balance + body control through the catch

Slow the game down.
Find your rhythm.

If you want to stand out as an infielder… it starts before the ball is even hit.

A lot of players jump right into ground balls without ever getting their eyes ready first.

If you can’t track it… you can’t catch it.

Great infielders don’t just have good hands—they have trained eyes and get their eyes behind their glove when fielding.

This is where it starts.

Do these drills 👇

âś… Shuffle Drill
With a partner and a baseball. Shuffle about 15 yards while alternating flipping the ball back and forth. Focus on clean transfers every time from glove to throwing hand.

âś… NFL Drill
Eyes behind the baseball. Rapid feeds to different spots on your body. Focus on short, controlled glove movements and clean catches.

âś… Catch & Hold
Secure the ball and hold it. Use a pancake glove or small training glove if you have This builds discipline and forces your eyes to stay behind the baseball.
