Butt in to his call.... no way!

I would never offer my partner help with his calls. If he needs help, he knows from our pregame that he can feel free to ask me. Besides, ever seen this:

From OBR-
9.02
(b) If there is reasonable doubt that any umpire’s decision may be in conflict with the rules, the manager may appeal the decision and ask that a correct ruling be made. Such appeal shall be made only to the umpire who made the protested decision.
(c) If a decision is appealed, the umpire making the decision may ask another umpire for information before making a final decision. No umpire shall criticize, seek to reverse or interfere with another umpire’s decision unless asked to do so by the umpire making it.

My emphasis...

Pretty clear IMO.
