"Coach, my pard called a foul ball, the runners are going back. I don't care if you think its right or wrong"

I ALWAYS back up my pard on a judgement call, even if for some reason he asks me for help, maybe pressure from coaches. One of the only two times this has happened was when I was PU (leadoff batter of the inning) and I clearly saw that the runner was safe, he asked me, we talked I said "Look Rogy, I got your back on that call, I am agreeing with you no matter what." Ever since then we never have talked about judgement calls. That was very disrecptful on the BUs part and furthermore the coaches have lost respect for both umps.
