Well, if its a 'wild pitch' by definition the pitcher has thrown a pitch which in the scorer's judgment could NOT be fielded by the catcher. Nevertheless, when a catcher is trying to field a pitch he will always try to keep the ball in front of him to make it hit his chest protector. If its to his right, the next question is where the batter is standing. If its a right handed hitter, the catcher will just throw, but if its a left handed hitter, theoretically the catcher may not have a clear throwing line to third and will most likely step forward to make the throw.

In softball, there are nine positions. They include:Infield-Catcher - The catcher is behind home plate. They catch the pitches, call what pitch will be thrown (examples- fastball, change up, curve ball, screw ball, drop or rise ball, inside or outside pitch, and much more!) , and throw people out when they steel bases.Pitcher - The pitch throws the ball down home plate (to the catcher) for the batter to hit.First basemen - Plays next to first baseSecond basemen - Plays between first and second base.Shortstop - Plays between second and third base. The shortstop is in charge of the infieldThird basemen - Plays next to third base. Usually has a very strong arm so they are able to throw to first base.Outfield-Right field - Behind first and second basemen.Center field - Behind second base. The center fielder is in charge of the whole fieldLeft field - Plays behind the shortstop and third baseman.
9 on the field (Pitcher,catcher,1st base, 2nd base,3rd base,short stop,left field,right field and center field)
You can, there is no rule against throwing the batter out if the ball is hit to right field you probably just won't be able to get the ball to 1st base in time.
They each have an important purpose, but catcher is more important in the levels in which you can steal bases. This applies since the catcher prevents passed balls, as a runner can steal easily on passed balls.
Catchers are predominantly right-handed in baseball because most batters are right-handed, and a right-handed catcher has an advantage in throwing out base runners trying to steal second base.
Well, there is a 1st base man, 2nd base man, 3rd base man, short stop, center field, right field, left field, pitcher, and catcher. So there are 9 players on the field at a time. Realize, the batter is there, too.
