Have always been told to kill a play if I see something to kill it, but is this considered overruling my partner who obviously has fair/foul responsibility?
To be fair, in that split second, there was no chance of him getting in position of 1B line extended to see the foul ball.

BU never calls fair/foul unless pre-gamed for past the base.
Umpires never overrule/contradict another's call unless asked by the other ump for info.
