Don't blame Donay. Blame the loss of fundamentals in early coaching. It
runs all over me to see these guys catching any pop up with just their glove, and off to the side of their body.
Use the other hand to "close" up the glove, and if you're doing it the right way, if you miss it, it hits you in the face. Therefore, you probably won't miss it.

Catching with two hands is a myth that little league coaches still teach their players. Catching the baseball with 1 hand, eyes behind it allows for much more adjustability than attempting to catch with two hands. Attempting to catch every fly ball with two hands causes a lot less range of motion. Try it for yourself.

Our softball team doesn’t use two hands either. And they have dropped some.
