The discussion here is not wether the rule was mis-applied because, once again, you are not going to know it until you converse with your partner. If your partner asks for help and you explain to him that his interpretation was incorrect, then the proper way would be to let him handle the correction. The
TEAM has then rectified an incorrect application of the rules and nobody has been thrown under the bus. Of course one coach will think the
TEAM is screwing him and the other will be saying "good job." But, thats baseball.
Its when the officiating TEAM, works as a TEAM, that this can be handled smoothly. if your partner elects not to correct his call then there is not much more you can do but get back to playing the . move on.
