Anticipation (on where the play is going to be) = good

Back to the ball = bad
I agree. The problem is not anticipating the play, but how he is reacting to that anticipation. Nothing is going to happen at 3rd until the ball gets there so there was no reason for him to look there before he saw where the throw was going.

We are all going to anticipate wrong from time to time for various reasons, but the error was in not waiting to confirm where the play was going to be rather than in anticipating.
