Are you honestly going to tell me that you're going to ignore the first whistle and go with the second whistle?

I'll answer it...
Trail gets the call...s/he was first, so s/he obviously heard the TO request BEFORE the held ball.
Again, If I see a held ball situation and I haven't quite put air in the whistle for it...
...and then, the HC requests a TO...he ain't getting the TO just because I havent' put air in my whistle. In my mind it was a held ball PRIOR to the TO request.
If you saw the held ball but, hadn't blown the whistle for the held ball...and at approx. the same time the HC requests a TO...are you saying you would grant the TO just because you have not blown the whistle for a held ball?
