MTD, Sr.
If you go before making the call and the PU cannot help, you must call the BR safe.

Nope, and you have never heard me say that.

If you check every call where you do not have 100% bit of information, you would have to go on half your calls from behind SS you would spend half the game talking to your partner. And as has been pointed out, the PU has other responsibilities that have a lot higher priority than a play at 1B.

You see it, you do your job and make the call. If there is a question based on a valid point, you can ask for help then.
