When I coach an ASA team I always use aggressive baserunning. Here's something that I do and have seen others do as well in ASA but for some reason NO High School teams in our area does this, including our own.
Less than 2 outs (sometimes even with 2 outs depending on the situation). Runner on 3rd. Batter gets walked. I always send them around 1st and directly to 2nd. In the early part of the game we generally have someone throw on us, until they realized that we just scored. Then we get the free pass to 2nd from then on.
We have had 1 team put up a great defense to this, but otherwise, it always has worked.
