If you turned and pointed to me, I would respond by telling you "Your call!!", and point back.
Why hang your part? They are your only friend. Yes it is their call, but why are you telling everyone in the park that they should have seen it and I am not going to help you?

In this situation you have the batter going all the way around so what are you watching? In the same breath, I do NOT MAKE the call. I get with my part and I tell him what I saw and let him make the call.

But never would I ever hang him out to dry like that. I would rather get together with him and tell him he missed the play by a mile and had to eat it, but no one else would EVER hear it.
