I try to watch what is happening at second. Especially on a bunt. We have several teams around here that teach the runner to cut inside second without touching it to try to advance to third if no defender is covering third. I can't tell you how many times I have seen this, but I can tell you how many times I have had to rule on an appeal of the runner missing second base - none.

- As BU, do you move immediately past 2nd w/o waiting for F1 to have ball in circle?

No, I wait until the ball is back in the circle and the runners have completed their running.

- As PU, where are you then?

BU - Yes, I try to if I can do it before the runner turns and heads to second.
PU - Cutting diagonally across the infield to cover third base.

I do these, just wondering if universal and taught.
