Do you guys think I did the right thing in just throwing to the base and not worrying about whether the cutoff man was there or not, or should I have made a 80 foot throw to the cutoff man who was out of position and couldn't throw to save his life?
There are three reasons you got put in right field:
  1. The opponents have a strong left-handed hitting team.
  2. You have a strong arm.
  3. Your hitting and fielding skills are unproven.
If it was because of #2, you did fine.
