Is there any reason to think that the fault might lie with the first base coach?

I never played in the major leagues, but I never needed a first base coach to ever do anything for me but point me to second on a hard hit ball to left field when he thought I should have a double.

True... but a first base coach can also look straight at the first baseman and yell "BACK" if there is a pickoff play on

I thought he gave up on it, too, even after the initial bad jump. 

I think he decided he wasn't going to catch it on the fly and instead tried to get it on a larger hop to make a better throw home if needed.
