And the pitcher needs to be talking. Many times the catcher doesn't even know where the ball is. I have the pitchers yell either glove side or hand side, so that she at least knows where to turn.
I dislike it, when a pitcher won't talk in this situation. The catcher needs to know where the ball is and where her catcher is.
I asked this question of a professional FP catcher and she told me not to have the pitcher cover home at all. Her point was any team can rebound from one run, but a hard slide into the side of your pitcher's leg puts her out for the year and most teams can't recover from that.
