How the devil can you not cover Home and 3B? I can see not being able to get to 3B when you've already a runner coming in from 3B. Get off your lazy butt and cover your areas of responsibility!
I agree with Rich & the others - you should have gotten into the right position to make your call at 3B - and not have gone for help on that play. Do it the right way and you avoid the CF that followed.
