A benchmark widely used to measure the potential of a baseball player as a middle infielder or an outfielder is a 60-yard time of 6.8 seconds or lower.

55seconds or 19.8 fps. If you are an average 13U runner and don’t get faster, you will reach 1B 4-5 feet behind the average 14U runner. If you are a below average 13U runner, you will reach 1B 6-7 feet behind the average 14U runner.
According to Baseball USA, the average time from home to first base (70’) for a 12-year old is 4.35 seconds or 16.1 fps. The average time for a 13-year old (80’ bases) is 4.79 seconds or 16.7 fps.

Home to 1st base.
If you can make it from home to first in 3.93 to 4 seconds, you will be scored a 7 out of 8 – a very good score.
* Home to first on “topped” or “weakly hit” balls. The Major League average on a “competitive” play is 27 ft/sec, and the competitive range is roughly from 23 ft/sec (poor) to 30 ft/sec (elite).

Why size is NOT important: The best thing about baseball is you do NOT have to be 6-8 or 245 pounds of pure muscle to play: Baseball is purely about you competing with yourself, so if you have the skill set to hit, field, run, and/or throw, you can play.
The fastest recorded 40 yard split on record belongs to Olympian Maurice Greene. During his World Record 60 meter run of 6.33, a mark that still exists, Green crossed the 40 yard mark at 4.18.
Fastest 40-Yard Dash Times at NFL Combine
Five years after running a 4.22 40-yard dash in Indianapolis, John Ross still holds the top spot for all-time players.
NFL players’ fastest 40 times
To date, no one has posted a faster 40 time — since 2000 — than Washington wide receiver John Ross or Tennessee wide receiver Donte’ Stallworth at 4.22 seconds, according to Stathead.

A pitcher with a quick sidestep can get the ball home in 1.1-1.2 seconds. Without the slide step, most teams want to see their pitchers clocking in at 1.3 seconds. A slow pitcher will take as much as 1.5 to 1.6 seconds. Before a good basestealer will take off for second, he’ll have the pitcher’s time in his head.
Speed Drills
Take a 5-minute rest break between each set. 5 reps /90 meters at 70% effort (full out from a 3-point start). 5 reps /100 meters at 70% effort (full out from a 3-point start). 2-3 reps of flying 50-meter sprints at 80% effort for acceleration (built up over 30 meters and then run at 80% for 20 meters).
Running is great for baseball players but the type of running you do is going to have a huge effect on how your body is going to respond. Instead of conditioning with long distance running try: running sprints like they did in this study. perform circuits of exercises likes lunges, pushups and rows.
