My suggestion would be to have your catcher run at the runner at third until he retreats. Then from there, throw the ball to the pitcher. Just my thoughts

Thanks Josh, that is how I understood it, as it pertains to Cal Ripken. We've developed an F2 to F1 defense that has the catcher run down the line, driving R3 back, while F3 covers home.
