Not much different actually, if I assume correctly that you are still talking about a throw to first.
Turn with the ball, and determine if F6 will bluff R2 back or not and watch as he sets to throw to first. Again, avoid heading toward the traditional working area or you will either get in the way of his throw or get straightlined. If he indeed indicates he will be throwing to first, head for the first/second basepath to make that call. If R2 takes off on the throw and F3 makes a throw to third, head toward the back of the mound for that second play.
Heading for the working area and just pivoting towards plays are for those who can't move. The goal these days is to get the angle and close in on the first play.
