You are mistaken, CCA has C position for runner on 3b only. It is a better position for a throw from F2 to F5 after a pitch. I had one of these tonight with runner on 2B and 3B and was closer to 3B to make the call because I was in C. On a batted ball the BU can easily move into a better position to make the call at 1B
