Abstract: The purpose of the investigation was to compare four types of starts in order to determine the fastest method for optimum speed in base stealing. The subjects for the investigation were 10 varsity baseball players and 20 members of a physical education baseball skill and technique class at Appalachian State University. The four types of starts compared were the cross-over step, the jab-step, the sprinter's start from the base, and the sprinter's start with a lead. The subjects performed three repetitions of each type of start on the Appalachian State University baseball field.
