Subject: Re: why no right field?



Archbishop Bob's post makes this appropriate. A left-footer, in Irish-

Catholic terms, was/is a Protestant, thus one "out in left field."

I think that it was that "COLOR ME ORANGE" that made me reply. Field

and footing are relative; one shouldn't throw oranges in a green house.

Enough of the color commentary.

Re baseball, wouldn't the left fielder be more likely to stay out -- as

opposed to moving in?
