I agree with both of the previous comments.

PU called that he had the play, releasing BU to cover the other runner. PU should have taken the call, SAFE if blocked, then gone for help if asked and felt it warranted.

As a general practice, I don't like the idea of bracketing a rundown with multiple runners on base. If both umpires commit to one runner, it leaves others uncovered and too much left to chance.
