I have never seen a defense walk the bases loaded to create an infield fly situation. I can't even imagine why someone would do so.

If the winning run is on third base with less than two outs...my friend, you haven't watched much and probably played even less baseball...why wouldn't you do that unless you have Danny Almonte pitching in at the LL World Series when he strikes everybody out. That is a widely used strategy in many baseball games...so if you have other coaching strategies out there you tell me how you'd align your defense when your team is playing defense in the bottom of the 9th inning tied 2 - 2 and B1 leads off with a triple...
I'm sure your reasons might be good...obviously this isn't the be all and end all strategy, but a very common one.
