I don't subscribe to that theory because if I ask you what you saw on a particular play i want you to tell me the truth, but I've called with many (mostly veterans) who will say "if I ask you just agree with me".
I'm sure that is prevalent up and down the the food chain.
Nothing wrong with asking, but as Garth suggested, only ask when its appropriate. On this play, the umpire was correct in not asking since he had the best view of the play.

Then why did he ask the shortstop whether he made the tag or not? In poker, that would be a "tell".
