Move towards the circle, parallel with 3BL. Don't reach the 2B-3B line unless there is a play at 3B. If the throw goes to 2B, drop step back towards where you started at C and simultaneously get as close to 2B as possible for a call. The angle is going to be crap regardless.

The 2-Umpire System is basically nothing but compromises for BU working between pitches with multiple runners on.
