The Art of Outfield Assists
The Art of Outfield Assists
An outfielder throwing out a runner at home is one of the most exciting plays in baseball. Which outfielder do you think had the best arm in MLB history? Do you think outfield defense is undervalued?
Re: The Art of Outfield Assists
Legendary plays like Roberto Clemente’s pinpoint throws or Ichiro Suzuki’s laser beams have solidified the importance of outfield defense. Successful assists require not only a powerful arm but also quick decision-making, as the outfielder must read the situation, gauge the runner's speed, and deliver an accurate throw.
