rightfielder

Fair-line territory guardian

A rightfielder is the baseball or softball player who covers right field—the outfield area to the right when viewed from home plate.

The position requires a strong throwing arm, as throws to third base travel the longest distance.

The rightfielder gunned down the runner at third.
