WMB:
All clinics that I have ever attended have always said to honor the appeal in this situation, regardless of where in the field your partner may be. Not only do you do this as a courtesy to the players, but also as an attempt to ensure that the call is the right call. I have noticed that the vast majority of the time that I am sure the batter didn't offer, my partner has seen the same thing. However, if my partner over-rules, as you put it, my call, then I still have nothing to be embarrassed about. We simple saw two different things from two different angles.
