Out in the wilderness

[ecurebel]

it is one thing for a coach to ask the person who made the call for assistance if the umpire deams that by asking for assistance he can get the call right.

i do not advocate asking for assistance on alot of calls because i can see what happened and i made the call the way i saw it.

there are just those times that you think you make the best call, but by the response of everyone there in the ball park it seems wrong then man up and ask for help from the partner, you can always stick with your call or change it.


if ever the partner desires to change your call or tell you that you might want to ask for help then your partner needs to realize his place and be quiet. because if i chose to ask for assistance it is purely a play i saw and know there will be no change to the call but its appeasement to allow the coach to know that you are listening to his arguement. appeasement only comes around once in a blue moon and the situation that it is used is at my discretion not the partners. (if it is my call)
