Having to play a player out of position

[shootingstars]

I had a strange twist to my game with Granite City earlier today.

My starting catcher, Jason Kendall, was ejected and then his backup, Gregg Zaun, was injured leaving with no one else to play catcher.

So I put in Michael Cuddyer and gave him all of the worst possible defensive ratings, E5, RF, Arm +4, PB/H F/F.

Ironically enough the winning run scored in the 9th on a passed ball by Cuddyer.

Did I handle this correctly?

Thanks,

Tim
