On a single to right field the shortstop will be the cutoff to third base. The second baseman will cover second base. The pitcher must hustle to get in position to back up third base. The left fielder should move in to help back up third base.

: a player in baseball who relays a ball from an outfielder to the infield.
Relay: there is a play on the runner, but the throw is either off line or dying, or a short/in-between hop. Keep in mind that the cutoff man retains the authority to make the relay decision on his own. Cut 2: there is no play on the lead runner, but definitely on an advancing trail runner.
Double cuts in baseball are needed when a ball is hit to the wall and there is going to be a long throw to a base. A double cut is when two infielders go out to cut the ball and relay (throw) the ball to a base. One infielder will be the primary cut off man, or the lead cut off man.

Cut off is the second baseman (Unless the throw can go straight to second base where the SS is covering). Center field to second base. Cut off depends on the side of second base that the hit ball traveled. The second baseman and shortstop need to communicate and one must take the bag and the other the cut-off.

Basically with a runner at first base and a ball hit to any of the three outfield spots the shortstop will be the cutoff man to third base. Making sure he is in a straight line between the outfielder and the third baseman.

In baseball, a cut fastball or cutter is a type of fastball that breaks toward the pitcher’s glove-hand side, as it reaches home plate. This pitch is somewhere between a slider and a four-seam fastball, as it is usually thrown faster than a slider but with more movement than a typical fastball.
The one exception to the scenarios outlined above occurs when the center fielder needs to get the ball to home, but the ball is fielded well into left field. When a center fielder fields the ball in left field and they need to throw home, the third baseman will be the cut-off man.
A relay typically occurs when a ball is hit deep in the outfield and your outfielder does not have the arm strength to get the ball to the necessary base from where they field the ball.
R1: Jump. R2: Dive. L1: Throw to Cutoff.
Power Swings are made by pressing the controller’s left button; Square (PlayStation), X (Xbox), or Y (Switch). A Contact Swing is focused on just getting the bat to touch the ball.
When using Button Accuracy mode, after the ball is hit and before the thrower tosses the ball, a meter will appear over the head of the fielder. Players will need to hold down the desired base to throw to, then release when the black bar is in the green zone.
When a runner attempts to steal, you’ll see this meter pop up next to your catcher. To throw out a runner who’s attempting to steal, you should press the button that corresponds with the base (i.e. to throw to second, press Y/Triangle).
