This is a quick and easy minor game that incorporates all aspects of defensive skills and baserunning.
The goal for each hitter is to successfully hit the ball and run around the bases before the defense can throw the ball to every base (including home plate).
Equipment
Balls (1-5)
Bats
Hitting Tee
Gloves
Helmets
Description
Fill all nine defensive positions with players and have the rest line up ready to hit.
Hitters must hit a ball off a Tee then run the bases in consecutive order (first, second, third, home).
The defense must throw the ball to each base in the proper order (first, second, third, home).
Any type of hit ball must be fielded and thrown to each base. For instance, even if a players catches a fly ball (which would mean that the hitter would be out in a real game), he/she must still throw the ball to first to start the sequence.
