I'm looking for a video I saw of a base running drill that I found a while back. Of course, I didn't bookmark it. :mad:

I'll try to describe the drill the best I can ...

It took place indoors and I think it was a college team. They had a live pitcher and catcher. One base runner was on first. A second base runner was directly behind her on the foul line, as if another bag was 10 further down the first base line. (There may have even been a third runner behind her). This was to allow multiple girls to work on getting good jumps and not have a bunch of girls waiting for their turn.

Anyway, it was a pitch recognition drill. On normal pitches, all the runners take their normal lead. On balls that are difficult to handle for the catcher, they would get a bigger lead and attempt to take second if the catcher struggled with the pitch, or dive back into first quickly if the catcher handled it cleanly.

If anybody has seen the same video and might know where to find it, I'd really appreciate it.
