The little things make all the difference. Even when discussing things in pre-game in the heat of battle often things are forgotten.

As Rich suggests, a simple stop sign will remind PU that I've got it. That simple communication helps no matter who the partner is.

As PU I always start moving towards third just in case BU forgets and then I am able to move and cover the play "after saying I've got third"

If BU is covering the play I can always move back and no one notices the difference.

In a perfect world, pre-game covers lots of things, but in the real world, letting someone know where you are going, are at etc., can cover a multitude of mistakes.

Especially when you happen to have a new or inexperienced partner.
