While the default coverage is the lone runner belongs to the base umpire, the standard expectation is that PU will call off BU with "I've got 3rd!!" any time possible. It isn't default to PU because PU must also be sure to clear the catcher and not interfere with the play, which isn't always possible in a timely manner.
