Correct. There MUST be a catcher in the box. The missing fielder would have to be one of the infielders other than the pitcher and catcher, or an outfielder. Most times they will just use 3 in the outfield, although I've seen some teams go with 3 in the infield. Even saw one team go with three infielders, and 3 outfielders and one person roaming around depending on the batter. But a catcher is a MUST! BTW, if this were coed wreck, make sure it's the blond bombshell with the nice rack!
