You use one of your own team's balls to warm up.1st base also is not the only position that needs a ball. And to keep the players in the infield ready, just in case the next batter will hit something -- they don't want to be half asleep when a ball is coming at them at 90mph.Its a custom so that the fielders get a chance to keep warm and alert, kind of.During a strike out, the fielders just stand there, so the catcher throws it to 3rd, who throws it to 2nd, who throws it to shortstop, who throws it 1st, who throws it to the pitcher.The same thing happens after they throw a guy out at first, just opposite direction.
