1. Not only should outfielders back each other up but they can help each other in other ways. By yelling to each other they will tell which one can catch a fly ball without colliding. With a man on base tagging up after a fly is caught the fielder closest to the one catching the ball should yell wheter the runner tagging up is going for the next base or faking his move. One move that is seldom used by an outfielder, but there is no reason why he shouldn't if the opportunity arises is during a rundown on the base paths. An outfielder should not stand watching the play; he should run in and cover a bag or back up the infielders in case a throw goes will.

2. Have someone blast fungos into the sky in between fielders from home plate. Communicating on who fields the popup is the key. The shortstop takes priority over all infielders... the center fielder takes priority over the outfielders. Infield-outfield is most important and can only be mastered with constant drilling.

3. The shortstop has priority over all other fielders. A good shortstop is also a solid leader. Always let your teammates know how many outs there are. Help in positioning, covering bags, etc. You don't necessarily have to be extremely vocal, but make sure you are the communicator on the field!
