If it is a matter of just pure judgement, i.e. they think that the ball beat the runner to first when I rule that the runner beat the ball, then I will never place the burden of my call on my partner, no matter how "properly" or "improperly" I am asked. The call was based on my judgement the first time that I made it, and considering my positioning on the call versus that of my partner's, it seems unfair to presume upon them.

However, if there is a question on a piece of info I may have missed that my partner may have seen (swipe tag that missed, pulled foot, bobbled ball...etc.), and if asked properly by the coach, then I will go to my partner. I will always make my call based on the information that I have, and if the coach doesn't have a question about it, then I see no need to bother my partner with it.
