a good base ump
proper mechanic is for base ump to make both calls at 1st. and 2nd play at 3rd. if he is in the proper position. Plate ump stays home and calls any overthrow to 1st. or 3rd. and he can still see a tag if asked by partner!
Don't go looking for problems, this is not a 1st. to 3rd. situation for the plate ump. we have a runner on 2nd. base. get into position and everyone looks good.
