Bob,
There was a Base Umpire. As the PU, even if a runner left so early that I would have somehow seen it while doing my job I am still not going to call it. Like I said before, I have done many hundreds of FP Softball games and never have I called a runner for leaving early from the PU position and if I had, I might have gotten punched in the nose by my partner. It is almost never that a runner leaves way early. it is a very close call nearly every time. That is another reason that there is no chance that the PU can call it.
If the PU wants to make everyone know that he thinks his partner sucks, he will call a runner leaving too early. Does he wants to make sure everyone knows he sucks, also? Then, like in the OP, he will call it only after the Defensive Coach grouses and be dead wrong about it.
Joe
