It's a serious question...if offensive team brings it to your attention, qoutes the rule you quote, and asks you to make a judgment on it, what do you do? You tell me what you'd do and I'll tell you what I DID!
My concern isn't for F9 wearing the mitt. It's for F3 making a play when she has no intention of ever covering first base.

Then you must have a cow when the pitcher or F4 cover the base on a ball fielded by F3.
The only way this becomes an issue is if a player which normally plays to the right of F3 are positioned to F3's left at the time of the pitch.
