You want to use this play with under 3 seconds left on the clock in an inbounds play in which you are on the opposite end of your basket. A baseball pass should give the receiver a shot somewhere between the free throw line and three point line

This play was used by Coach K and the Duke Blue Devils in an Elite Game in the 1991-92 NCAA Tournament. With 2.1 seconds left, Grant Hill was left unguarded and threw a baseball pass all the way to the opposite end of the court. Christian Laettner caught the ball, turned, and nailed a 17 footer to give the Blue Devils a one point victory over the Kentucky Wildcats. This double overtime thriller was one of the most memorable college basketball games of all time.
