too much inside
On this play there is simply too much action in the infield to be going inside the diamond. I don't even care for getting on the baseline for the 90 degree angle. I really only see two options.
1. Stay outside the diamond in fair territory similiar to where you would be for a steal from second to third. This keeps you outside the action and you should be able to get close enough to see any possible play at third base if the runner comes back. In this spot, you are certain not to get involved in any crazy action that may result.
2. Foul territory with a 90 degree angle. This is great in the three man but you are leaving yourself way out of position if there is a play back toward second base or first. If you do have a sharp PU though, you might be able to pull this off if he comes up the first baseline and then toward the pitcher's plate as he sees the play developing back at third base. It would look sharp as hell but too many variables involved for this mechanic to work reliably.
