When working a two man crew is there ever a situation where you defer to the other umpire for a call. Or do you just make the call, then ask for Help? I had this situation, two man crew, I was the field umpire. Runner on third one out. A slow ground ball hit to right side first baseman fields the ball to his right bobbeling the ball. The pitcher and second baseman come over to cover bag. The first baseman with ball in glove dives to first to tag base with his glove. I get blocked by the pitcher and the first basemans body. Do I make the call anyway or defer to homeplate umpire?
