It should be "get the procedure right".
I hate when umpires play with words instead of centering on getting the call right regardless.

On a play like this, the manager needs to do his job. He needs to go to the PU, ask what he had, and if he'd get help from the BU on the call.

Maybe the PU thought the batter should have moved, and intentionally held his ground. Who knows? But there's a proper way for these things to play out.
Screw proper. Get the call right. Properly if possible, or not.
