The situation that you spelled out is precisely the reason that I prefer the PU take the call at third.
When I am on the plate and this happens, I will start taking a few steps toward third while watching the play at second. This way I am already moving toward a possible play at third.
The extension of this is that the BU needs to be ready to rotate to cover home if there is an overthrow at third. It is something that you should definitley cover in pregame.
