Shift All nine fielders are placed with the infielders repositioned for the batter's hitting tendency. Under current MLB rules two infielders must stay on each side of second base, so check your league rules.

Bunt The pitcher, first baseman and third baseman charge toward the plate while the catcher covers. Use it when you expect a sacrifice bunt.

Cutoff The centre fielder throws to the shortstop, who lines up between the outfield and home plate. Use it to stop a runner taking an extra base.

Wheel With a runner on first, the second baseman rotates over to cover first base. Use it to organise bunt defence when the corners charge.
