The problem, according to Braun, was his footwork getting to the ball, which threw off his timing throwing. Yeah, as whizkid said, you don't want to throw a thousand balls to 1B a day. I think it's a great idea... well, i initially posted that as a bit of a joke. of course, he shouldn't be throwing the ball 1,000 time a day. however, i'm pretty sure the motion of throwing to first would include his footwork. so, regardless of what the problem was, practicing would help that. none of this will matter next year, however; cut-off men are much more mobile since they don't need to keep one foot on a base.
