Inside 3rd - toward 2nd, apparently in baseline. Reaction to passed ball was expecting a play at the plate or closer play at 3rd. Apparently, R2 passed behind while rundown was in progress.
I agee with "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", but I think it happend too fast.
