I also don’t understand why a RF can’t be pulled in to pitch(like in baseball). I’m certainly not a FPS rules expert, but I never heard of a rule that says players can’t change fielding positions.
Sure, in softball a right fielder or 1st baseman CAN enter the circle to pitch BUT they would be completely ineffective if they were not also one of the PITCHERS on the team that is practicing regularly. In baseball, at the younger levels (8, 9, 10YO) you could certainly bring in another player to throw fastballs only and be somewhat effective for an inning or two. In fastpitch, it's impossible because the preliminaries and arm circle motion is so unusual that no one can just come in with very little, if any, practice and throw strikes. At least, I have never seen it...
