From pages 258-259 of the 2012 ASA Umpires Manual:
Runner on Second Base Only - Fast Pitch
Fly Ball to the Outfield:
P - ... Responsible for ...
any play on the lead runner at 3B ... . [
Italics added.]
B - ... Responsible for the tag up at 2B, any play at 1B or 2B and the last runner to 3B.
In this scenario, the "last runner" is (I assume) the batter-runner after a dropped fly ball.
I do not know where Irish is getting the information offered in his post following yours.
