Plate guy should stay home here and be communicating with the BU letting him know what is happening behind him.
Even if the BU is using perfect mechanics of seeing the force at first and then retreating to 3rd as he makes the call. This is so helpful and I always appreciate it when guys do this. Just a simple "behind you." or "nothing behind you" is all.
