Here I tried a similar approach to trace the diamond--trace a square. I did this just for the sake of experiment, not out of any particular affinity for the square as a means to trace the runner’s progress. I prefer open spaces to diamond diagrams anyway, and the square eliminates the aesthetic pluses of using a diamond.
As you can see, I marked reaching first base with the bottom line of the square, and went from there. You may also notice that some of the squares are more like rectangles, and wonder what the distinction is. The answer is that there is none; my artistic skills are so non-existent that even drawing a square can be a challenge. Of course, you could make a sheet with preprinted squares or dots mapping out the four corners if you wanted to make them look nice. But for me, this was just a one-time trial to mix things up.
