Does that mean ZERO errors for the season?

I don't know if that statement is accurate, but they are fast, and in some ways that makes the zero errors more impressive. Fast outfielders are going to get to balls that a slower player will not, and that can lead to tough chances, opening the door to errors on balls that the less speedy player would just field on the hop.

Different positions, but that was one argument some made against Cal Ripken's fielding percentage: some said it was inflated because he couldn't get to some balls that other infielders could.

Most outfield errors are bad throws to the infield attempting to throw runners out and the occasional misplayed single into a triple. Our outfield is solid and very quick.

Our entire team has been very solid defensively, with one exception. She has been improving however.
