What should I do in this situation?

All you can do is call your game. I do not call my game to be a 100% perfect with my partner. In many cases I probably did not see my partner's call. So you cannot just make a call only to match your partner. What you could do is if there is doubt or the plays are close you might call similar things. I just do not think this is an automatic to make the same call just because your partner called a block on one end.
