Ground Ball to the Pitcher to start a 1-6-3 Double Play Attempt

A runner on first, a ground ball back to the pitcher. Watch how communication and role clarity impact the double play attempt. In the first clips, we see the pitcher, shortstop, right fielder, and catcher in action — with varying levels of execution. One breakdown leaves the base uncovered and everyone safe on a routine ground ball. Finally, the InMotion Animation shows how it should look: every player moving, every base protected, and proper backup in place.
