Wow! This video helped me so much, even if i am just in little league! I was assigned to catcher yesterday and my role model is Buster Posey, so i wanna catch just like him! This video really helped me get there!
Megan,Is exactly right on how to recieve throws to home plate...she isnt telling you to get in the basepath she is telling you to be in front of the plate!
This is good but I am currently a catcher for my highschool so ive had plenty of experience in the game and I must say that I don't agree with how she talks about blocking home plate. I have used this method for a while now and I have received 3 concussions and my softball career is close to an end because of it. PLEASE encourage catchers to stay out of the base path when a play occurs at home. Trust me!
lakehouse10061 It's only obstruction if the catcher is in the baseline before they have the ball. She is starting in front of the plate and stepping into the baseline as she receives the ball.
lakehouse10061, it is that's you start in front of home plate so you won't get called for obstruction.Any ways I used to play first base so I was called for obstruction,I don't get it either.but I am a semi pro catcher
Thanks to this video, I won my first softball game as catcher. Love you guys
Extremely informative! Megan does such a great job, I wish she did another episode like this.

Cool info.
I've been catching for 7 years and my knees are locking a lot while I'm catching any ideas on why?
She's my role model!
What's the difference between what she is doing to "block the plate" and "obstructing the runner"?
