I've always stayed about a step foul when there is a runner being held on first. The only time I've ventured near or on the line is the R3 situation if my view is being blocked, usually depending on the size of R3.
Thanks again.

Straddling as U3 has worked for me just fine. There certainly is nothing wrong with it and it does give you a better view of the batter/plate area. If your group chooses not to do it, fine, but don't think it's "wrong" by any means.
