I'm talking about a bad throw to first, as in the OP. As I was taught at school, I will not come set, I will not move into foul territory. Busting in is then no issue unless you're incredibly slow or lazy. I will then be near the 2nd base cut-out and have no problem seeing either the touch or a play.
My partner, plate gear and all, will be doing his job and take the ball and we'll get the play right.
You may have been taught differently.
To each his own.
