Good thought, if we have such a choice with a shortstop playing straight-up.
Most times, for me, the determining factor of left/right is primarily the set of the shortstop, who may often vary the positioning based upon the batter, and not the number of outs. With an extremely deep set, I may even be forward of F6.

Most of us should never be forward of the nearby fielder. If the fielder is playing that deep, especially if behind would be on the grass, several steps to the side is better. Gauge the side distance by how far the fielder can move before you get out of the way.
