@cicliolmo715210 ай бұрын
so when I was training my nephew it was just me and him and we didn't want to shag all the balls out on the field for BP. So we flipped it around --- I pitched to him from the backstop (+ L-screen) and we set up homeplate about 25 feet in front of me (towards the pitching mound) with a Bow-Net and he was hitting towards the big 50ft backstop screen. That way the 50 ft backstop would 'catch'/ knockdown all the balls that he hit and it was better than if he was hitting in the normal direction and we would have to go shag all the balls. This was like an outdoor batting 'cage'.
