I don't understand this. Are you saying that with R2 only you have BU in B? I don't agree that with an attempted steal of third in this sitch you can get a better angle from B than from C. I can't imagine that could possibly be the case.

What if one of those 5% of plays is a steal of third in the late innings of a tight game? That's a pretty important call, right?
