When that happens, you dont know whether to hold your glove in the air and hope the ball lands in it, or to cover your head so you dont get beaned. Its funny in practice. But in a game, an immediate wave of panic rushes through your entire body when you cant see that ball that you must catch. how to handle the elements. It might not amount to anything more than knowing you have to get a firm grip on a ball thats rolled over wet grass. You have to, otherwise an And it always seems to pen with men on base. attempt to make a quick, accurate throw endup floating haphazardly through the air like a kite at the mercy of March winds. Or it might be learning how to deal with that particular enemy of outfielders - the sun. Good coaches have a few practice sessions where they bunch their outfielders together in the sun field and hit them high fly -- balls. Other players stand around in tea parties, laughing at the team- - II V hap- The more you work at it, 'though, turning your body at different angles, peering through the strings in the webbing, the better youre able to deal with the sun. Some fielders eventually relish the idea of playing the sun field. It becomes a source of pride to challenge the sun and beat it. Repeatedly. The one element thats almost impossible to prepare for, however, is snow. In this part of the country, that poses quite a might problem since theres so much around. Snow can throw off your game in so many ways. You can be running after a fly and find yourself with a wet seat from sliding across the damp grass, flat on your back. Stepping in snow, or its residue, will do that to you. Besides the embarrassment, having a wet seat can make the rest of the game pretty miserable on a cool spring day. It also can be quite disconcerting to have a snowflake land on your eyelash. As implausible as that sounds, it does happen, generally when a pitch is on the way or a hot grounder is headed your direction. No way to keep from blinking. And a blink makes all the difference between success and failure. One of the lingering memories I have of playing small college ball in the Rocky Mountains is the annual road trip Regis College took to southern Colorado. Snow was a It just so happens that the mountain that Crested Butte is cut out of is in dead centerfield. Which means that it is directly behind the pitchers mound.

Anybody whos caught a ball in the palm of a cold hand knows i how good that feels. Third basemen dont have to move as much as other players and tend to get frozen in place. Outfielders probably have it the worst. Its colder out there. Infielders stand on dirt; outfielders have their feet sunk into grass, cold damp grass which makes feet feel like solid blocks. Outfielders might not have to move for a whole game, either, at least not as part of the action. So youll see them doing versions of the newest New Wave dance just to keep their blood circulating. But thats all part of the game. Once you understand the different elements for what they are, accept them, and find individual means of dealing with them, you possess an insight that no coach can teach. And you appreciate the good days all the more. WARRIOR - TOPS West Lake Student Gains History Honor GRANGER.

New 9th Ward retained that makes it to hit, let alone see, a white baseball coming from a pitcher in a white uniform with a snow covered hillside right behind him. Western States third baseman was never very busy against our d lineup. Of course, they had to deal with it, too. But our pitchers helped to compensate for the hardship by generously misplacing fastballs down the gut at belt level. Even if its not snowing, plain old cold has to be dealt with. Cold not only affects each individual player differently, but also has a separate impact for each position. Pitchers have a hard time getting a good grip because their fingers tighten up. Thats a problem, too, for second basemen and shortstops when they have to turn a double play. Hitters just hope they dont catch one on the handle. That sting reverberates from fingertips to toenails. Catchers stay the warmest wearing equipment and moving constantly but they, like first basemen, have to catch hard fundamental factor in those trips. The road from Denver to Alamosa (a town worse than even Craig or Rock Springs), home of Adams State College, took us over Monarch Pass. If we could make it. In April, you never knew for sure. After losing a doubleheader there (thats one of the reasons I hated Alamosa so much), wed head over another pass to Gunnison, a mountain town not too far from Crested Butte Ski Resort. Gunnison was a town much more to my liking. Whereas Alamosa is a pit, Gunnison has a rustic charm and pretty surroundings.
