Infield Fly - F7 runs in from LF to the edge of IF

I'm sure your reasons might be good...obviously this isn't the be all and end all strategy, but a very common one.

that's why we play the game...different coaches, different strategies, different levels of baseball. and DG, while I have seen what I describe work, I have also seen it fail...much like you scenario...I can find a million reasons why your strategy is good too...but like any plan in baseball...it doesn't work every time.

In the Almonte case...maybe it was a dropped 3rd strike followed by two passed balls....there R3 no outs. :-)
