I had a situation last weekend, were the batter did slaps w/ two strikes. But at one point she was bunting. I was BU but my PU called it a slap.
I didn't call her out. For me that was the same as a swing: the first decision is on the PU and in case he needs help, he can turn to me.
After the game the coach (he is also an ump - this is Germany) came up and raised the question whos call that would be. I explained my point of view.

Would you agree and NOT call the batter out as a BU if you thought it was a bunt but the PU just called it foul.

What if you weren't sure about his rules knowledge?

Thanks for you input

Raoul
