For starters, your partner letting the batter run down to occupy first on a balk. Second, your partner not noticing a runner on first before putting the ball back into play right after a balk. Third, you not noticing a runner standing on first just after you called and explained a balk.

The whole mess is completely you and your partner's faults. You guys need to pay attention to all the players on the field before putting a ball back into play. One of you should've noticed that batter-runner standing on first right after you called a balk. Neither of you did. That's your mistake.
