| I would like to read some discussion on the 5 infielders and 3 outfielder’s strategy. What are the pros and the cons? Does it change if you are playing at Crosby?

| It is actually a strategy that is used by many A and B ball clubs at the Provincial level. Most power hitters are predictable with where they will hit and most others will simply try and power it through the infield. If you have a solid outfielders with good arms, it is pretty safe to assume they will get to anything in the outfield. Therefore, covering up the middle can be advantagous in many ways.
In our league, it would be a "defense" that would work 75% of the time. It also acts as a distraction to most hitters who usually try and go up the chute.....
Good subject.

| To be successful with the strategy you need 3 very good and fast outfielders, something the Arms has, I don't know too many other teams that could utilize this strategy.
We played the Arms twice this weekend and they played great - definately deserving to be the Champs.

| you can't argue the results...The Arms did it and won so it obviously works.

| The Arms not only did it exceptionally well, but they also knew when to abandon it and go with the traditional 4 outfielders. I'd have to say the strategy is only a success when the team knows when to use it. Well done boys!
