Umpires are human, and occasionally make mistakes at all levels. Standing on the bases can get rather tedious and boring, and sometimes wool-gathering happens to the best of them. If you ask me the count while I'm on the bases, there's a 50-50 chance that I'll shrug my shoulders to say "search me." The PU is responsible for the count, and blaming the rest of the crew for his mistake is not really fair to them.
