Trick Play Alert! Do your homework!

By: Randy Dykstra

Trick plays???

The first two are "delayed steals" that almost every travel team (in our area) older than 10 yo knows about and use frequently. In fact we have signs for them....

Another is taken care of by having your palyers knowing what the count is .... Its a sin for your catcher to not know...

The last one is pain out Cheating and any coach caught doing that in our league would be ejected and suspended and a second oocurance would ban him for a year (but in reality almost for life).


Trick Plays?... Watch out for the one pulled in th CWS in the 80s (I think it was stanford or USC) where a pitcher faked throwing a pick off to 1B (stepped off rubber) the 1B dove and came up running... the RF and bullpen all faked like the ball has been thrown down the line, The dugout and the pitcher also tried to get an academy award... Well the base runner takes off to 2b where the pitcher runs over and tags him. Now that is a trick play!!!!
