If the call was changed because of lack of vision, I could understand the HU asking if he saw the play, but the BU said he saw the play clearly and the runner was out. What do you think? Should the call stand?

PU's are often asked by a coach to talk with his partner because he didn't like his partners call. In your situation I would say something like "It's his call coach."
The coach has to convince my partner to ask me for help. If he does then I tell my partner what I saw BUT I can not change his call. The BU made the call and he has to be the one to change it.
