I wonder? If you think about it, the umpire would have a much better angle from the right side of F6.

Shading toward second definitely put the BU closer to the play, but the call at first becomes two-dimensional. From the 3B side of the SS, you are a bit farther away, but with a much better angle especially if you step in a bit toward the play.

Just a thought. Agree with all other posters. Your call, could ask for help, but varsity game first day out?

Good luck
