Only one brave soul attempted this problem. How unfortunate. This is a position that when it came up OtB I felt there was a right play, it was a not so simple matter of finding it.
What I wanted in the position was to retain contact while not leaving a double shot in the outfield. There's only one play that fits this bill the best, 10, 1.
