PU has R3. BU has R2 (and R1 if he tags -- nearly never).

You're assuming -- as am I -- that he's talking about the retouch of the base. If he's talking about who takes the subsequent play at the NEXT base, then it depends on the base situation.

The PU only comes up to make a call at third if there's a play on R2 and we started R1+R2. Otherwise, the base umpire has the call in all other situations.
