Just to add a point...

As PU, remember that once you read no play at 3rd (ball and runner) to retreat home. Stay in foul ground until you read a play, at which point you go to cutout. The retreat, ideally, would be when the ball is secured in the infield, however on a deep fly to the RF/CF gap you may have to retreat home as the ball is being thrown in. Should R2 break his leg 2 steps from 3rd, he's still your runner technically, although if you're already retreating because of no play, you can hand responsibility back to BU by saying "Going home Jim". Your partner should then split his difference as much as possible.
