Some umpires feel that it's "nice" to placate coaches that ask for "help." They are just trying to get the umpire to shop the call to see if the other umpire will see things differently (in other words, change the call to their liking).

After the game, did you tell your partner to own his call and not come to you just cause the coach asked?
