What's Wrong Here?

Based upon what we've learned about fielding ground balls so far this season, can you identify what things this infielder is doing wrong here?


We'll review your answers on Wednesday before the game...

Update: Our players did a good job identifying the problems:

1- This player has played the ball to one side of his body rather than centering his glove between his legs;

2- This player has his right hand facing the sky rather than above the glove with the palm faced down in a position to catch the ball with two hands;

3- This player is bending at the waist rather than the knees and is not low enough to properly field the baseball.
