Shortstop Skills and Throwing Guide for Young Players
Shortstops must move quickly to either side and initiate the double play to limit innings. Focus throws to the base rather than the fielder and keep the throw chest high. Do not glance at the second baseman as you throw since he may still be arriving at the bag. This excerpt comes from the Pitch Hit and Throw booklet offered free to registrants through PH&T locations or by mail.
