Thoughts on a common deviation - (2 man) PU covers 3B on a extra base hit?

Agreed Ted. When I do this, I have full expectations of busting ass as PU to get back to home, just like with runners on base. Would you agree then that if PU deviates, BU should stick with his responsibilities and not deviate further?

Yeah, I would agree with that. If the BU partner was too slow to cover the BR to third, I can't see him being quick enough to try and cover home.

I agree that BU should not deviate further
