Can we get the hit location in the play by play? For example:
Player A hits a hard grounder to RF for a double.
Player B grounds out to 3rd.

With outs, it includes the positions that made the plays. For base hits, it is unlikely we would try and describe the hit locations with words. We have graphical representations of the hit locations on the scorecards and on the iScorecasts, but there are too many borderline / edge cases to try and describe the hit location with words. Where does left field end and center field begin? Where does the infield end and the outfield begin? It is just a fuzzy thing to do, whereas the actual lines we draw for hit locations are whatever the scorekeeper enters.
