As a shortstop player myself. A shortstop is like the captain of the infeild. He must let his outfeilders know how many outs there are. If a ball is hit anywhere in the outfeild inside the park and nobody on base the player becomes the cut off man to second base. If there is a runner on first and the ball is hit to the gap for a double the shortstop lines himself up to make the cutoff to third base. If the ball is hit shallow and there is a runner on first the shortstop is the cutoff for second base, same with a runner on second and the ball is hit shallow. If there is a runner on second and the ball is hit to the gap the shortstop goes to cover third base as the third baseman becomes the cut off man but if there is a need for a double cut off the shortstop goes out to be the first cut off who thne throws it in to the second cutoff and if there is a play at home he would throw the ball to home if not he would look to see where the runners are and make sure they stay at their bags.
