When I was coaching and I had a runner coming to third, he was paying attention to the 3BC as to slide, come in standing, or head for home. If the SS fielded the ball and was throwing to 1B or 2B, I had my players ready to go home in case of an overthrow. I imagine he was doing the same thing. Again smart base running.
