The Mich coach seemed upset about it... Why would the BU call the runner out if the PU did not request assistance from his partner in determining if the batter went?
Is this normal?

Did not see the play....However, reading your post, you state catcher dropped 3rd strike
on wild pitch...So PU figured she went...His/Her judgement. No need to check with
partner. [There was plenty of swinging at pitchers that were in the dirt thoughout the
series.]
