That sounds good, but if you think about it, if F4 does decide to go to 3B with the throw, that is the BU's call and s/he would be moving away from position and possibly in the way of a throwback to 1B.

I guess a lot would depend on where the BU actually started in relation to the defensive set-up and the timing of R1 advancing to 3B. [/B]
Right of course, but if the throw goes to 3rd, it would be coming from inside the 2nd-3rd line, so I would rather be inside and facing instead of moving parallel to the runner on the outside. That's bad enough on steals of 3rd.
