Antonella,
I know there are times when a sharply hit ball to right filed will require you to position yourself in foul territory in order to make that call at 1st, and while there is a lot of good advice here, let me reiterate, whenever possible try to get yourself into the infield on all balls hit to the outfield (base hits). You will be in much better position to watch runners hit bases and make calls at 2nd and/or 3rd.
If you have the good fortune to work with the same partner that’s great, but I’ll do 32 FED games this year and over 100 ASA/PONY games and rarely have the same partner. Don’t put your self in the position of assuming the PU will cover 3rd, in my experience it happens infrequently.
Hope you have a great season!
