what do to!
1) Only ask for help if you REALLY need it. in any instance, stick to your guns! And careful, the FIRST time you get questioned, and they get thier way, then it'll set you up for disaster the next time around
2) Dont try to even it up!
3) You are the Ump, not them!
4) SELL THE CALL in the first place.
5) Call TIME if you feel you want to ask your partner, meet up with your partner, and act like you're "discussing"...then stick with your call. Sometimes coaches will just be happy with you "asking for help"
6) If you got it wrong, live with it, the only way you will improve is if you allow yourself to LEARN from the mistakes you made! Whether is be positioning, knowledge of the rules, or even the controversial strike zone!
