When I watched the College World Series, it seemed like a lot of the infielders would throw sidearm to first base. It wasn't an extreme, but their arms weren't coming over the top like the outfielders did. I know why the outfielders throw like that (longer distance), but is there a reason why the infielders don't?
Are there certain throwing techniques that work best for infielders because of the shorter distance and the need for a quick release? As a player who plays both infield and outfield, I would like to be able to adjust my throw as I move positions.
