Then that was my misunderstanding Kent. In my part of the world, the UIC is the overseer of the games, not an official on the field. That should explain my response to your scenario to you.
In ASA ball, both umpires have equal responsibilities with a slight semantic edge going to the plate umpire to correct any errors which may take place.
As we all know, sometimes it is the veteran, sometimes the guy/gal who takes it more seriously, that takes control on the field.
