I am not going to admonish or correct for followingthe norm. I will correct that I did not say in front of F6, not anywhere that might interfere with play or not see what the fielder would do. I meant going to the side of the play, moving toward 1st, especially with 2 outs. Also, I position closer to 2nd in C than most, again especially with 2 outs. Yes, we must wait behond the fielder in B or C, to be sure of not being in the way, until the path and distance of the batted ball is obvious.
