"The defense then appeals to me and I tell them that the call is the BU's and that I had to get into position for the play at 3B - the BU's call stands."
The ONLY thing you say to the defense is, "It's HIS call". If they don't know how to ask the BU to ask you (PU) for your opinion, tough noogies.
"I know without a doubt that R2 left early - I think the only person on or near the field who didn't know it was the BU. The UIC of the umpire association said I did the right thing, which provided some relief."
Your UIC should have reminded you how to treat this situation.
"Should I Overrule the BU?"
By rule, you CAN'T.
