"...play your defensive alignment to meet their strength, the way they hit most often. Mack did that with Ruth. We would shift the whole team around toward the right. The first baseman on the right field foul line, the second baseman on the grass in short rightfield midway between first and second, the shortstop behind second base, and the third baseman in the normal position of the shortstop. The outfield moved around correspondingly." -- Mickey Cochrane, The Fan's Game (1939)
