Watch, listen and learn
Rich and Garth...Thank you for reading and understanding the point being made. Even the most accomplished officials at the highest level get together and reverse calls when necessary.

If you want to change a Balk call your partner makes (which is not based on a misapplication of the rules). Then you should be able to change a tag play at second bases as the PU.
Wow, you must have been at the Sectional Semifinal at New Trier this year. That play actually happened. The base ump called a guy safe, even though he was straightlined. The plate ump had come up to follow the batter into first and saw that the kid was stopped a foot away. The defensive coach went nuts and asked for help. They got together and got the call right. Did it look awful?...yep. Did they do the right thing?...yep. Was the state executive adminstrator there?...yep. He applauded the fact that they worked together to get it right and they will get Sectionals next year because they proved that they are not bigger than the game.
You seem to be hung up on things we have never even discussed here. I offer erroneous fair balls, bad catches, pulled feet and bad balks and you come back with ckeck swings and strikes. Try to argue the same issue.
You claim not care about my opinion, but you've posted a half*assed reply to each and every one. You also claim not to care about my credentials, but then challenge them at every turn. Get a hobby because giving umpiring advice is not your strong suit.
