The outfield positioning in this era still irks me. Guys like Devon White, Marquise Grissom, or Andruw Jones never played that deep. I get it with no one on or guys on only first and second and a big lead. But they basically turned a 135 foot fly ball into a 3 run double on a #9 hitter who slugged 336 on the season. If he hits a triple it scores the same number of runs.
