Inside 3rd, in the baseline?

Or inside 3rd toward the pitcher?

I'd have tried to get inside the baseline first (without getting in R2's way), and once past the runner (out of the baseline), tried to get between 3rd base and F1 in position for a tag play at 3rd. This should keep you out of any runner's way, and ready to dash for position on a subsequent play after a tag between 3rd and home.

Bases loaded passed ball is ALWAYS wrought with a possibility of having bad position on an unexpected play (especially if F2 suddenly fires to 1st base).
