During a stolen base attempt, infielders typically position themselves near their respective bases to be ready to receive a throw from the catcher. The shortstop usually stands between second and third base, while the second baseman is close to second base. The first baseman may move toward the pitcher's mound to be in a better position for a potential throw to second base. This positioning allows them to quickly react and tag the runner or make a play to prevent the steal.
