I call my partner over, and as expected, he cannot help. We confer very briefly, then I signal white ball, and we go on amidst the outraged groans from the home bench, the screaming of fans, and the cheering of the visitors. :P
SOunds like you did change the call, am I correct?

Anyway, 3 person fixes this situation 95% of the time. That spot on the floor with 2 is SO TOUGH. Not a whole lot you can do but go with what you see, ask for partner's help, look for the kids' reaction before signaling.
