To go with a Sheldonism, "In what universe is there any order which runs, 3, 2, 4?" What happened to "1"?
The softball method also allows for continuity in extended and continuations of any scenario(s). The baseball method is a one and done and a complete reset.
And that is my personal preference.

I will say this, though... At least EsqUmp
specified in his post which runners were which. Too often, people assume that everyone knows on which base R3 had started.
