Was the bobble due to a transfer? I take it there was only 1 or no outs and the possibility of a double play and the very real possibility that it was on the transfer. As PU watching for the FPSR you could have helped with that if the BU kicked it as being on the transfer.
In either case seems to me there was some poor timing on the BU part and he needed to stand up and fix his error, not have you fix it for him. Yes on the DP you will make that out call a little faster than normal but still slow enough you could see a straight dropping of the ball or a drop on the transfer and still make that one call of safe or out (on the trasnfer drop, of course you want to re-emphasise that the runner is still out with "He's out! He's out, He's still out!)
