we follow PBUC which has B only for 1st and 1st/3rd. that play really hangs the BU out to dry since the first base coach is right on top of it--i had one today where i called him out. actually it was the 3rd base coach who was upset about that one and not the 1st base coach, which means i probably got it right.

Who picks at first or even holds runners on at first with runners on first and second? Any coach worth a flip will play his F3 behind the runner in that situation.
