Summary: In baseball, a number of coaches assist in the effective functioning of a team. They are assistants to the manager, the person who determines the lineup and decides how to substitute players during the game. A baseball team is also assisted by two base coaches when they are batting, with these coaches stationed near first and third base to signal and direct the runners and batters. In addition, a team may have several other coaches who specialize in certain areas of the game. A pitching coach advises and trains pitchers, while a hitting coach works with players to improve their hitting technique and form. A number of other people affect the game of baseball in a significant way, including team owners, scouts, fans, and umpires. The umpire is the person charged with officiating the game and enforcing the rules.

In order to understand how the game of baseball works, you have to understand the responsibilities of everyone involved in the game, including the people who aren't on the field or on the bench. In this free video series, our expert will introduce you to baseball coaches, managers, umpires, scouts, trainers, and fans, and tell you what their responsibilities are and how they affect the game. You'll learn about pitching coaches and hitting coaches, base coaches, the owner of a baseball team, as well as the different kinds of umpires on the field. Baseball is more than pitchers and catchers, and these videos will show you how much more!
