R3, less than two outs. I'm PU, BU is behind the mound.
B1 hits a pop-up to the edge of the grass to the left of F4, R3 gambles, tags and scores. Appeal to 3B following the play, I point to BU who was watching the catch. Coach gives me an earful, saying "that's your call".
Since there was a R3, isn't that the BU call?
In a 2 Person System, the Tag up at 3rd belongs to the PU. You as PU get in the best position possible to get a view of the runner and the fielder. The BU has all other runners should they tag, plus the BU has to watch the BR touch first base as well should the ball be dropped.
The Coach was right.
