What if you have a judgment call? You going to tell your partner that what he considered was a balk, was not because you say so?
Yes, if he calls something that clearly was incorrect, I have done that. In fact, I have taught the balk clinic for two major college umpiring associations. But then again, I only work baseball, Therefore I can focus on doing one thing very well, not three half-a**ed
If you do, you might have to throw out more than the coach if it was me.
That would be fine, since one coach wouldn't want you on the field after making a horsesh*t call. I get the call right and get rid of two headaches. They don't call balks in T-ball though, so we probably won't share a field anytime soon.
Your ego has gotten the best of you. You are arguing mechanics with someone that has far more knowledge and infinitely more concern for the game.
