Ok,

I have always been taught (and therefore teach) that as a PU when the R2/R1 situation arises that I give the signal that dictates that I (as PU) will be watching the ball inflight as I move out from behind the plate.

When there is a catch and tag-up I will always have the play at third THIS allows the BU to stay in the working area and be ready for a play on R1 advancing from 1st to 2nd.

Frankly, I have never seen this taught anyway else.
