Stop and think about the play. The ball is in LF, then to 2B, then to 3B and then to 1B. If I'm BU, I'm coming inside while looking through R1 for a 1st touch. Watching and making the call on the play at 2B and THEN looking for BR. In this play, the BR is the least of my concerns.

If there is a question, I will not hesitate to discuss with my partner, which is what happened here. You are not going to see everything and an umpire must prioritize at times.
