Now if you meant that for some reason F3 kicked the base out of place after B1 hit the ball then B1 wouldn't have to run 5 feet out of the way to touch it.
But if you did happen to start a game with the bases in the wrong location, you simply make the correction as soon as it's noticed and play on. Sorry, guys... Blame the field crew for screwing up.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
