Is this so they wouldn't be in the way if the throw was errant? No 90 degree there. Is this what we are supposed to do in this situation? Personally I would think you would take a few steps into fair territory to get the 90. Just wondering.

Both of those calling positions for U3 on a steal at 3rd are listed in the Manual for the reasons other members have posted.
