2nd Baseman Backhand Flip

• Players are in the second baseman and shortstop positions
• Coach is near home plate, hits ground balls slightly to the right of the 2 nd baseman
• 2 nd baseman fields the ground ball by getting their body behind the ball and then backhand flips the ball to the shortstop covering 2nd base
• 2 nd baseman should keep wrist locked and push the ball out of the back of their hand to limit spin and increase control of the flip
• Shortstop covers 2nd base to receive the flip from the 2nd baseman
• Coach hits 10 ground balls to the 2nd baseman, and then the shortstop and 2nd baseman switch positions
• This can also be done with shortstops flipping to 3rd base
