This is essential to cover in a pre-game..
If I were PU, I would say that I cover the whole rundown, and only make eye contact with my parter if I was not sure of a tag going away from me at third...waiting for a safe or out mechanic...
BU has to be in position in the working area to see the play going back to third, or swipe tag..but also to be ready for a throw across the diamond..
