You probably should have confronted him then and there, however, without being confrontational. Just mention that in a rundown, mechanics require that both umpires bracket the play, one on the inside of the diamond at one end of the play, and the other on the outside of the diamond at the other end of the play. Let this partner know that you are aware of mechanics and procedure on the field.
You may also want to mention to the president of the umpire association, as well as to the assignor, that apparently this veteran was far more interested in seeing you "pay your dues" than actually working the games(at least properly) that he was being paid for.
