How to look bad ?

I'm watching the local HS play its big rival. Schools are from the same city and basically the winner gets in the playoffs, loser doesn't.
Visitors are winning 1-0 bottom of 6th. Both teams have had about 3 baserunners all game. Home team has runner on 3B with 2 outs. Batter hits a line shot towards the F3 , tips her glove and we have nothing. I was watching the PU . I consider him a solid vet. He just didn't make any call, no fair signal, no foul ball,no nothing. DC comes out and the PU goes to the BU, who is in the C slot, they talk and PU then signals foul ball. Now the home team fans and coaches are losing it.
Now OC comes out and they have like a 2 minute discussion then PU sends OC to the BU and it just doesn't get any better with all these conferences.

I'm making the assumption that the BU really doesn't have much to offer in this deal but it ended up looking like he made the call ultimately.

Would any of you consider,in this sitch, going to the BU - in the C slot- for this line drive down 1B ?

My thinking is PU had a brain fart.....
