I am not aware of any rule that authorizes any umpire to over rule another umpires judgment call. Perhaps incorrect rule interpretation may be corrected by the UIC.
As plate umpire I have no problem allowing the head coach to go onto the field and speak with the umpire who made the call.
As base umpire I have no problem speaking to the head coach, but I will not change a judgment call. "Coach, in my judgment he was ..."
If I am going to get help on this play it will be before I make a call .... if possible .... if not possible to ask my partner " was he on the base?" because of action of the other runners, I make my call and move on.
Those looking for perfection need to find a different hobby.
