Today’s lesson.

Connect route, cues and safe decisions.

Why it matters

Baserunning is equal parts movement and baseball IQ.

What you need

Create a clear four-base diamond and coach station.

How to do the drill

Run a mock single, extra-base read, hold cue and score cue at controlled speed.

ONE CUE TO REMEMBER“Run fast. Think faster.”

Today's skill-game challenge

Complete 5 safe decisions on an imaginary inning.

One common mistake

Confusing the drill with permission to ignore league rules.

Coach it positively: notice effort, a good decision and controlled movement—not just the final result.
