That ST (Standard Trainer) training help and tips site is so way out of date. For the BEST throw/catch results in ST here is what you want to do:

Drag the CF off the field. When he starts to run back to position, you need to place the mouse on him and left click on him to make him stop where he's at. This may take some practice to get it down. After that, simply select your RF and turn on fielding (DO NOT select another player until you turn fielding off). Your 2B and 1B will now throw two balls back and forth to RF. At first, they will miss a lot of balls and may get some run gains from chasing the balls. Move 3 more players to those positions once they are done. When you come to the last 3, you'll have to put that CF that you took off the field and put him in one to the training positions....then move the current CF off the field just as you did before.

In the beginning they will get more catch gains than throw, but the throw gains will be greater after a few sessions of it. Good Luck!

Actually for just catch, there's a two ball method that works best. I haven't done one ball training in ST in many, many months. Done properly, everything is better with 2 ball training. I'm quite sure there are still some ST trainers out there that use it and have very good teams, but I've found absolutely no advantage with it.
