(In case it's not obvious to all: U1 has the plate, U2 is at first and U3 started play on the first base side of second base).

First... fix your nomenclature: PU has the plate; U1 is at first, and U3 is the other guy.
Given that your initial setup is completely messed up, you're already slightly screwed. But if we ignore that ... the general answer is that if an umpire goes out, you revert to 2-man mechanics, which you should be pretty familiar with. In 2-man, what would BU (U1) do with a liner to the outfield and runner on first?
