This is ugly but could have been much worse if there were more runners. I have several questions here:
Where is BU during all this?
Did he also think there was two outs?
Did the guy on third tag up or run thinking there was two outs?
Did the defense appeal he left early ( if he did ) and did PU see this ( probably not, thinking 2 outs )?
Doesn't each team have a responsibility to know the outs?

These are rhetorical questions since you probably don't know the answers. It just gives me pause for thought.

PU will take the heat on this without knowing any more info about his partner's role.

The bottom line is the run scores and the ball is live until PU wakes up and realizes there are only two outs.
