No, it's not. I think you have the "set-up" confused. Neither Evans nor Wendlestedt nor PBUC teaches, in two man, to have PU cover third with R2 only, nor do any of them teach BU covering home when starting on the grass.

You or your memory are mistaken.

According to one of organizations I listed above, what they might "talk about", but still never teach, is that if the PU F-ed up and went to third when he wasn't supposed to, and the BU can bail his sorry a$$ out without giving up a runner, he could do so. But, they emphasized, it would never be an approved mechanic, a taught mechanic or in anyway pre-planned.

You have probably hit the proverbial nail on the head. My set-up could very well be off, and my memory could very well be incorrect. Actually, it's most likely a combination of both.
