3B Extended is a very good starting position. As you watch the play develop you can pivot around home plate (if you have to) to get your best angle.

When I started out, I used 1B extended. It felt uncomfortable because I almost always had a player between me and the ball. A vetran suggested using 3B extended and to adjust for the tag. Now I (usually) see the catcher, runner, tag and plate. I'm very comfortable and confident in my calls at the plate using 3B Extended.
