It is a completely logical system; it is just not the traditional, sacred, extracted from the holy text passed down out of the mists of the past, baseball system.
Anyway, I insist on using it for clear communication on this board. It'd be fine with me if softball adopted the baseball nomenclature, but until that happens, this is a softball board, and to avoid confusion, we should use softball nomenclature.
The baseball system requires fewer words to set up a situation, but more words to continue describing it. Tomayto, tomahto.
But here on this board, we use the softball system.

Must I remind all of you again that it is baseball which is the imposter, not softball.
