I just got to do what DonInKansas said. By the way I never thought it was always the BU always has fair/foul calls. Hmm learn something new everyday.

Good, at least you are reading!
The "V" is for fly ball coverage. In a 2 man system, the only time the BU gets to call anything fair or foul is when there are no runners on and he is in the "A" position. The PU takes the call from the plate to the 1st bas bag and the BU gets the call from the 1st base bag down the line to the pole.
*******READ CAREFULLY********
When the BU is in "B" or "C" position, he has no business making any calls on the lines. The PU takes all fair and foul calls when the BU is "in".
The only exception is "foul in the box" that the PU cannot see.
