Baseball Signals

During the seemingly routine situations of a baseball game a flurry of covert activity takes place in seconds before every pitch. These are baseball signals.

Everyone in each team has a certain role in communicating with their team members. The manager chooses the best play for the situation and relays a sign to the 3rd base coach. The 3rd base coach relays messages from the manager to the hitter and the runner. They use fake signals too which are meant to conceal the real signal from the other team.
