In a traditional baseball infield rotation sequence known as "around the horn," the ball is thrown from the third baseman to the second baseman, then to the first baseman, and finally back to the pitcher. This helps practice and maintain quick and accurate fielding and throwing skills among the infielders.
The firstbaseman uses the ball to warm up the infielders during the next inning.
An inning in baseball consists of 3 outs. Outs are received when either 3 strikes are thrown to a batter, striking them out, if a player hits the ball and is thrown out at first or if there are baserunners who are tagged out or forced out, and if a fly ball is caught.
When we played, it referred to throwing the ball around all the infield bases; example; after a player is thrown out at first base; the first baseman will often then throw it to the 3rd baseman upon completion of the play; then the 3rd baseman to the 2nd baseman and the 2nd baseman to the shortstop. It's sort of a way to keep the infielders all warmed up and attentive in between plays. Hope this helps!!

The first baseman's glove is longer with a deeper pocket and generally not as wide as other infielder's gloves to help them catch balls thrown from the infielders. The majority of plays the second baseman, third baseman, and shortstop make are on ground balls and popups.The majority of playsthe first baseman makes are on throws from another infielder. Thelongerglove gives the first baseman an extra few inches to be able to catch the ball and the shorter width and deeper pocket is for a better grip of the ball once it is caught.
In Major League Baseball, the "around the horn" play typically involves the third baseman throwing the ball to the shortstop, who then throws it to the second baseman before it goes back to the pitcher. The first baseman does not receive the ball after an out during this sequence because the play is designed to quickly return the ball to the pitcher while covering all bases. The first baseman's role is primarily to field ground balls and catch throws from other players, rather than being involved in this particular rotation. Additionally, the ball is often thrown around the infield to build momentum and keep the game flowing, with the first baseman's position being less central in this specific play.
The following is from an article on sportspool.com: " around the horn a 5-4-3 double play, in which the ball goes from the third baseman, to the second baseman, who tags second, to the first baseman, who tags first. Like many baseball terms, this originates from sailing. Until the Panama Canal was built, the quickest way from the North Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean was to sail around Cape Horn, the southernmost tip of South America. By extension, "going around the horn" refers to covering all or several angles of something in baseball. More commonly, this phrase refers to the tradition of tossing the ball around the infield after an out is recorded such that no runners are left on base. For example, after an out recorded at first base, if there are no runners on, the first baseman will toss to the second baseman, and the ball will subsequently be thrown to the shortstop and then the third baseman, and finally back to the pitcher. The order in which the ball is thrown "around the horn," can vary from team to team and from situation to situation, but many teams see this as the "way" to do it and it may even be considered bad luck to deviate from this standard pattern. Also, some teams use this only when a strikeout is recorded. This version starts with the pitch being thrown and the last strike recorded then is quickly thrown from the catcher to the first baseman who proceeds with the regular order. Now it is used more as a method to show off, than to ensure that no runner is left on. "
