Which up has the responsibilty for determining if he tagged properly? Would the 2nd base up have the catch/no catch responsibility?

Back to the original play. Pro mechanics.
U2 has no outfield responsibility when inside. Either U1 or U3 will go out on the fly ball.
If U1 goes out, then U2 will watch the tag at second and U3 is in position for the play at third. If the ball's to center field, then U1 should go out as it sets up the subsequent play at third better.
