Does anyone know if the crew did this last night because PU had been injured in the game and was moved to U3 and they decided to modify the rotation or is this how their 3 man rotation is suppose to work?

U1 is supposed to be at first when there's an R1.
An exception might be with R1 and R2 and an "obvious" bunt situation.
