When is it the shortstops responsibility to cover second base in baseball?

0

It’s the shortstop’s responsibility to cover second base, one, any time that there’s a double play ball hit to the first baseman or the second baseman on the ground. Two, any time a runner is stealing second base from first base, and they’ve decided ahead of time that he’s the one that’s going to cover the bag, as opposed to the second baseman, based on one of a number of reasons. Those are really the two main times that he needs to be responsible for the bag.
