First HS game last night, little sore this morning, little rusty last night, but it felt good to get back on the field.

Here is a situation that I would like comment on:

R1 on first, no outs. Batter hits sinking line drive to F4.

I, as PU, thought I saw F4 pick up the ball on the short hop and started to signal a no-catch. Just as I started, my partner, in B position about three steps to the left of F4, comes up with a strong catch and out signal. I defered to his call because he had the better angle, looking at the play from the side. Technically, the catch/no-catch is the PU's call.

Fortuneately, I had not gotten too far into my big no-catch signal, so we avoided any problems on this play. Two questions for comments:

What is the best way to handle this play?
How do we resolve the situation if one umpire is signaling a catch and out, and one umpire is signaling a no-catch?
