Question
I was wanting to know if it is ok to stagger your feet whenever a runner is a threat to steal, why or why not, and is this something that could possibly keep me from my ultimate goal the majors, thanks.
It all depends on how much your feet are staggerad.If they are slightly, then it is no problem.If they are extreamly, then you will have problems moving side to side to block.Don't woory about that keeping you from your dream, just make sure you are working on blocking and throwing.
