The Shortstop body provides the ability for Ambassador/Senorite Anthony to interact with Zapbots at their size level. When merged his X-O Suit becomes the head of the robot, and his human senses are diverted to the sensors of the larger Zapbot body. Thus he feels and interacts as one as a Zapbot.
The body has an alternate transformation into a mobile space jet.
Due to the common destruction of the body during numerous battles, several backup units were available notablity in yellow (see Rebooted.)
Behind the Scenes
I remember being at a Baseball game with my dad and as I was painfully bored (it was the Cleveland Indians) I heard the term 'Shortstop' and as such I decided that that was going to be my version of Cerebros for the Zapbots. However, this role was very pertinant to the Zapbot saga as it was the primary mode that engaged Amphotron in battle outside of ships.
