I agree with the HTBT aspect of my play. I can say that if I had the dish, I would have called it a foul tip, it just didn't seem to me to be high enough to be a fly ball. It was barely over (if at all) the batters head. I didn't discuss how he determined it a fly ball, maybe I should have hehe.
What you described is exactly how I took the runner to 2. At least my partner had the good sense enough to see I was hung out to dry and communicated to me he had third. I think the first scenario was just a brain cramp. The guy was a solid umpire with really good communication.
Thank you very much for your input.
