Same game? Ouch. The only reason one is supposed to ask the PU for help @ first is pulled foot/swipe tag - depending on an associations mechanics or a conversation before the game, perhaps this is how the two umpires were taught or agreed to do things. Our association says, FU makes the call and then it's up to the coach to "politely and respectfully" ask the FU for assistance from the PU regarding pulled foot or swipe tag. As for play at 3B, not sure I want to pick up that short end of the stick. Certainly had to be there. Generally speaking (and I think discussed very recently) is the release of the ball has to be voluntary. There's also the pause, read, react axiom which goes directly against the make a call axiom. But in the long run, the team is supposed to get it right.
