USSSA perpetuates the old (and otherwise totally discredited) one plus one; the one the runner was going to plus one. If heading forward, two bases; if heading back, one base.

Right, I should have said "one base if running in reverse". But then, I was being a little facetious and don't really care about U3.

I guess we have to compliment those umpires on always being able to see all the runners' direction while watching the ball in a one umpire system.

Again, may be true in SP, but not in FP.
