Defense is the fastest way onto a Mudhens team sheet, and this block teaches it from the ground up: ready position, first-step quickness, glove presentation and throwing footwork. Infielders take hundreds of fungo reps; outfielders work drop-steps, routes and crow-hops; catchers drill receiving, blocking and throw-downs.
Every session finishes with a "clean inning" challenge — nine outs, no errors — because championships are won on routine plays made routinely.
