Mike - do you have any other information on this?
It works well in SP. The only difference between the two disciplines is watching the pitcher. Relatively not worth talking about in SP, but a serious part of the BU's duties in FP.

BTW, Billy P also advocated the BU stay outside on balls to LF. That's all fine and dandy until the OF drops the ball when throwing it and you are so far out of position for a call at 3B, it's not worth it.
