i only wanted to know, if i could have or should have overturned the call. i didn't. but, for future knowledge, was just curious, if i would be correct in overturning that call. and i apparently did the correct thing in NOT overturning the call. i just want to get it right.
thanks!

Go to your partner and ask, "Are you sure?" It sounds like he got flustered by the coach yelling for the count and lost focus. Give help, but DON'T change their call. Once it happens the crew will have problems, but they are fewer if you get it right and the official that made the mistake fixes it. If you change it, your partner is done for the rest of the game, and every call will get a, "Change it," from the coaches.
