What was just described is the biggest reason I make the call, and then ask for the "appeal" if needed. A lot of guys in our association want to point to plate umpire (not say anything, just point) and let them make the call.
Worked with one guy who would point an everything that was close. Since it was a blowout game, on one play that was obviously an out I pointed back
For me, I make the call, if coach asks me to check with my partner I'll ask. If not, play ball. (also coaches will ask for control of ball, traps, three-foot lane violations, etc).
