Signals for Catcher to Call Pickoff Plays in Baseball
The catcher acts as defensive captain and should keep simple signals for pickoffs to infielders. Examples include bare hand on knee for first base, dirt pickup for second base, and glove hand to knee for third base. Ensure a return signal from infielders and always back up first base when no one is on.
