If you're describing a softball play, use the softball designations for players. If you're describing a baseball play, use the baseball designations. Or, use the "other" designation and annoy people.
I do use the softball designations. I'm a team player. I do what I'm trained to do even if I disagree with the mechanics. I enforce the rules even the ones I'd like to see changed. Doesn't mean we can't disagree with how things are done. I do believe that the various softball associations sometimes do things differently just to be different from baseball. Some of the mechanic differences are logically since the game is different on certain levels. Others, I believe, are done just to be different. Which is fine with me. I don't lose sleep over it. I'm just saying!
