Question

Watching the 5:00P.M. game prior to my 7:00 game and witnessed the following.

Outs at this point are not important, No runners on bases. Three man crew.
Left handed batter has 0-0 count. Pitch comes in, batter checks her swing, PU indicates ball.
F2 asks for an appeal, PU goes to 1stBU, who hesitates, then says, "No, she
did not go." Defensive coach asks for time, talks to PU, PU then asks 3rdBU, who
says, "Yes, she went." Naturally offensive coach joins the discussion. Several
minutes of delay, coaches depart, PU indicates 0-1, "Play"

I have never seen or thought about this before. Would you stick with your first
appeal, or do you under questioning by coach go to second partner, which of course,
was the one that should have received the request in the first place? I know our
job is to get it right, but are we allowed three chances? Or would you have gone
with 1stBU and said "No"?
