1. Stand in the foul taritory
2. Cant go beyond the pitching mound
3. No bags on the field

Notes:

    Shoot every batter in the first two innings for sure and use portrait mode. Try using manual focus so that you can frame the shot better (but be ready to switch to Auto Focus if they hit the ball).

    Put in multi shot mode.

    Take many shots as you don't know what will happen.

    Shoot the players in warmups between innings as you can get them isolated and they will be catching and throwing the ball.

    Take pictures of the pitcher from behind the catcher and ump whle standing behind the fence, put lens up against the fense. Get pitcher in full whind up and relese. Try to get the ball as it comes in so it is big and blurry and the pitcher is sharp.

    Shoot from the first base side to get the right hasnded batters facing you.

    Shoot from the left base side to get the lef handed batters facing you.

    Shoot the followthrough for the opposite sided batters (if they swing all the way around with their bodies and not just arms)

    Shoot from the third base side to catch runners stealing second and for thier leadoff going to third.

    If shooting behind a fense use the lowest number F-stop like 2.8 and get right up to it with your lens.
