Our golden retriever reminds me of Mike Lowell! Can’t get anything by her, and she makes leaping snags followed a nonchalant trot back to me with her ball.
this can apply not only to 3B but also pitching. having the shoulders and lead arm lazy or out of postion cause you to either open up to much and be late or cause you to pull the ball. be direct with where your glove goes and point your shoulders at your target
