Not to mention the importance of the call in prioritized order. I'd rather miss a call at 2B than at the plate, but I'd also rather miss a call at 1B than at 2B.
You are only one umpire and you are NOT going to see every angle of every play. You could be working a 6-umpire game and still not see every angle of every play.
