My question - whose call is the possible play at second?
As it played out, I was 1st base umpire, and I took the play at second because my third base umpire was holding at third with the runner at third. My UIC says this is correct,, and I've never known him to be wrong before. I just thought that possibly the third base umpire should have been coming in to cover the possible play at second, with plate umpire coming up to take the runner at third.
Comments....?

Since the ball stayed in the IF, there is no rotation. You covered the play correctly.
