single runner
More than a few of us in the Pacific Northwest do exactly that...it's the base umpire's call. But...it all comes down to having a REAL pregame with your partner and talking about plays like this. Who is going to make the call? Discuss it before the game so you don't have situations like that.
With that being said, the PU should not trail that far up the line. I know the closer I get to 50 years old the less far I go up the line...although I will go at least 15-20 feet.
By all means the PU does NOT go to the holding area with a single runner on second and a "routine" ground ball in the infield. This gets me to a pet peeve: I see far too many PUs who often don't go up the first base line. They go to the holding area or, worse, right up the 3B line! ARRRRGGGGHHH
