Talking Warning! Warning! Warning!

The umpiring community is divided into three camps on this issue.

You will find one side feels that the admonition in the rule book to "get the call right" gives license to ask for help whenever you feel the need.

You will find another side that believes that there there are appropriate calls that can be appealed. (To them, this isn't one of them)

You will find a third group that feels that you make your call, you live or die with it. If you screwed it up, learn to do it better next time.

Then, of course you will find a number of hybrids who take a little from this, a little from that.

What you will not find is concensus.
