Upon seeing that no call was made I signal "Fair" at this point my partner who is now half way between 1st and 2nd says "But it was a foot foul!" I responded right away saying "Then why didn't you call it!" The look on his face said; Point me to the nearest rock so I can go hide.

The offensive coach came out and asked what happened but he pretty much knew the answer.
But why did you point fair? You were watching B/R.

It appears that you threw yourself under the bus and then your partner drove it over you.
