I know - different organization - but I'll make the comment anyway.

In the college game, you are much more likely to have an ejection over the call at 1B with a pulled foot than anything else. (This makes watching F3's foot & running lane violation the PU's priority - added this afterward). As PU, I'm holding about 10 feet down the 3B line - so I've got an very good view of the pulled foot. And, I've still got the needed angle on the R2 going into 3B call - along with knowing that I'll be much closer at the time of the call.

Jeff - The mechanic you described is the correct mechanic - but like Mike said, make sure your partner is there ready to render assistance.
