You know, the object of this thread isn't to parse and dissect my question as much as it's to answer the question. I think I corrected any confusion in my later post.
I'm simply seeking guidance from more experienced and trained umpires since I get so little of that in my association.
As far as using the 1BLX angle to see the swipe tag, it seems you can be just as effective from the 3BLX spot while still not blocking yourself out on the play made in the Angels-Os game.
