| There are two methods to use when fielding bunts down the third base line. The first is take a small jab step with your left foot and go out and round the ball (always staying to the left of the ball). Get your right plant foot behind the ball, scoop and throw. The second method is head directly to the ball, get your right foot over the ball. Spin toward first base and make the throw. On bunts directly in front of you, head straight for the ball, round off when you get to the ball. Square up to first base. Make the throw. On bunts towards first base, Head straight for ball, scoop the ball up. Either step into the infield (first choice) to get a better throw angle or step into foul territory to get a better angle. Make sure you don’t hit the runner. | |
