► Home to First Base Drill: Players simulate a swing and sprint through the bag at first base.
► Straight Steal Drill: Runners from first base work on straight stealing off the pitcher.
► Dirt Ball Reads Drill: Players at second base anticipate dirt ball reads, doing a shuffle similar to a delayed steal.
► Third Base Tag Up Drill: Runners at third base take their secondary lead, go back to the bag, and tag up off the pitcher.

Plus they share some important situational drills:

► First and Third Defense Drill: Defense practices plays while base runners work on run downs and early breaks from first base.
► On-Field Batting Practice Drill: Incorporates base running with batting practice, involving steals, hit and run, and reading the ball at different bases.
