No, but it does make reading it funnier.
The "proper" term would be U1 if you are working in FED terms, but within the forum the "accepted" term would be BU as in Base Umpire.

My philosophy regarding situations like this is... Knowledge is POWER. (Cheesy, I know.) The worst that seems to happen, is you/he feels crappy about winning that way. The best you know the correct ruling when it does happen to your team. If it happens again and you are on the short end of the call and then you tell the coach about you run the risk of having problems.

To echo: DB plus: strike, ball, award. Depending.
