Agree. I misspoke when I said 3BLX is a "go" position.

I don't give a flying fig about what you do in baseball. Different sport. I don't work baseball, don't know their mechanics, do not know the responsibilities. I do know the field is different, and that probably leads to some differences. For the sake of this conversation, baseball mechanics are moot.
Not necessarily, at least not for me. I do a lot of LL Baseball at the Majors (12U) level, and they play on a 60' diamond, just like softball. I'm just trying to learn and understand the subtle (and not so subtle) differences since, as you mentioned, I "swing". There may be others on both boards that do the same.
