FIX Short-Hop Mistakes (With a CAL Berkeley Infielder)

Описание: Struggling with short-hops? You're not alone. This is one of the most common and CRITICAL fielding challenges for infielders at every level. In this video, I'm on the field with Jade, a standout infielder from the University of California, Berkeley, breaking down the exact drills and cues we use to master short-hop reads and fundamentally sound glovework.

We're moving beyond just "staying down" and getting into the real details: training your eyes to read the hop, perfecting your funnel technique to secure the ball, and building footwork to handle balls to your left, right, and straight on. 👇
