Absolutely not for championship play. If there is a protest, the UIC covers the play with the crew. Gets their call, what they saw and opinions of the play. The UIC will then recap the play, apply the appropriate rule, if necessary. S/he will then talk to both managers, recap the play and give the ruling. As long as neither manager has something to add to the scenario, that's it. If there is more to the story, the umpires will feel the pain for not giving me every bit of information I needed.
What the local leagues may do is their business.
