to it,shift to another word, as There he goesdown, down being the catchword. Nevershout the sign to the pitcher unless you arc surethe base runner is really going to try to steal.You only make trouble for the pitcher then. The play of a first baseman becomes morecomplicated as soon as men get on the bases.If the score is close and a man is on third basewith less than two out, the entire infield movesin toward the plate so as to make the play tothe plate and cut off the run. If there is a manon first as well as third on this play and one isout, I would recommend having the infield playback and try for a double play. In this way,the infielders are able to cover lots moreground, and I believe that a double play issuccessful oftener than one to the plate to getthe runner. With a man on first and second bases andthe score close so that you expect a sacrifice,the first baseman should play well down thebase line, probably about twenty feet towardthe plate. Then he can make the play to third
