In general, for a rules issue, I want to get it right, right now.

I agree that a ball/strike call might not have much impact on the game, and that might be a reason to pass in this case.

Which one counts more as throwing your partner under the bus: (1) taking him aside, asking him what he saw, and letting him fix it if it's wrong, or (2) letting him explain a rules-basis for his call that you KNOW to be incorrect?

That's a sincere question: it's not obvious to me that one answer is always right.
