My partner was trail, table-side. When he didn't blow his whistle I should have stepped and did the job.
I can see why you'd feel like you left one out there, but if you didn't actually see it, I don't know that you necessarily want to call it. I am 99.99999% sure a coach kicked a bench on me earlier this season, but I didn't see it, so I didn't call it. Calling a T for something you don't actually see could get you in some trouble.
