"I've got 3rd if he tags!!!!" the PU yells to his partner as he heads down the 3BL.
Proper 2 man mechanic and taught EVERYwhere I've ever been. PU has lead runner, BU has trailing runner.
In the OP - Wait for the play, ask your partner if he had a catch and make the call based on what he tells you. It's his call, force him to make it. That may not be the correct way to handle it, but I've been hung out by a partner with piss poor mechanics and I've have since decide to force his hand when it happens (at least if I'm ever on the field with certain partners).
