F6 always cut off.
F5 & F4 cover respective bases.
F1 back-up 3B; F3 back-up C
If you want 1B covered, used F9, she is close enough and has nothing better to do.
The conductor can be either F1, F3 or F2, depending on the coach's confidence in the player's ability to recognize the variables and probabilities (no possibilities) presented in multiple scenarios. At the higher level, it SHOULD be the catcher.
No matter who is going where only ONE person should be opening their mouth and that is whomever the coach has designated at the conductor, or director or whatever you want to call the player running the show. Too often players on the field (along with their parents in the stands) all of a sudden become coaches and the player taking the cut (if necessary) with her back to the play is hearing multiple directions and unless she can pick the one voice out of the group, isn't going to be able to execute a relay (if necessary) without turning, stopping and looking for a play.
