"His theory is there is no one there to see the touch/no touch of third".
This should read: his theory is that no "defensive player" is gonna see.
As PU you will see this, or should IMO. The odds of a foul no foul, or even a running lane violation taking your entire attention away from you next responsibility R2, is pretty remote IMO. PU certainly won't be following the BR up the line in this case, as he/she knows their responsibilities for R2.
Ya gotta be ready for a second play on R2 at 3B also, why wouldn't ya be checking him?
I've seen this play, and was truley amazed no one (defense) saw it?
What exactly should F5 and 6 be doing on this play? They should be watching for a return throw to 3B or at the very least watching to holler if R2 heads for home. F5, was no kidding, half way to the mound, watching, F6 was standing on 2B watching. I never paid my guys to spectate.
If by some fluke PU doesn't see it, and the D appeals, well, make a budget next year for a 3 man crew, safe.
