The call on base 3 is for BU, the call for an early left 2nd-base is i.m.h.o. for PU...

The catch is PU. Everything involving R1 belongs to BU

Not trying to be cute or anything, but... Is that a Dutch mechanic? ASA gives the tag-up responsibility for a lone runner on 2B to the BU. The only time the PU has tag-up responsibilities for a runner on 2B is if there is a runner on 1B.

Dave I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views! Screw green, it ain't easy being blue! I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again. |

A catch by F7 with R1 on 1st leaves R1 for BU; a runner at 3rth with a catch by F7 gives the runner again to PU. We let the positions of the catch and the runner(s) on the base(s) dictate us who has which runner. Catch is always for PU and the runner(s) in the straight line of view to the catch. The other runner(s) is/are for BU... It's difficult for new bees, but if you're (a little) experienced easy.

I understand the "line of sight" point to which you are referring, but you also noted that it isn't that easy for newer umpires and maybe not for some lazier veterans. What you are noting are permissible deviations from the standard mechanic. |

And those deviations turned to be our standard
