After the next pitch which was a ball low the base umpire comes flying in toward the plate and calls 2 of the baserunners out for failing to retouch their respective bases following a foul ball. What a weak ending to this exciting game. Is this correct? Is there a rule that supports doing this?

Plays that give umpires a bad rap.. Horrible umpiring by PU and BU. This should never happen in a baseball game.
Thanks
