This baseball drill looks a little strange. Can anyone explain it?

It's not a drill. Mike Neal's making the ball levitate with dance moves...

I miss football. I wish I could fast forward 4 months, and during those four months a new deal has been made.

We had this drill in baseball, if it's the same thing. It was mainly for the infielders, even though we all went through it. The coach would roll the ball on the grass and we had to stay in front of it without crossing our legs and when we bent down, we had to bend from the the knees with our opposite dominate leg forward. For me, I'm right handed so I had to step forward a little with my left foot as I bent down to pick up the ball and throw.

I can't explain it too well, but it's for hand eye coordination. For football, the thinking is most likely if you can grab this little baseball, you'll be able to grab the football. I'd disagree because the football bounces differently and you should be practicing that. By how the ball is hitting the ground you can easily predict the direction the ball will go.

These are all extra chunky boys. Just land on top of the ball don't try and scoop it and run with it.

He's rolling it to one side or the other and you have to shuffle in order to get in front of it.

My first thought is that it is some sort of dexterity drill. Considering it's a still picture which captures 1/100th of a second of life, without seeing the actual drill I don't think any of us can say what it is definitively.

I recognize that drill. I do it daily with my dog. Neal is supposed to pick the ball up in his mouth and bring it back to the coach. If he gets distracted and starts sniffing the ground instead of bringing the ball back, the coach will yell at him. If he brings it back quickly, he'll get told what a good boy he is. Yes he is! That's a good boy!
