Thanks all for the replies and opinions.

A clarification:

Those comments and questions were directed to my partner. That was just about the moment he probably realized: oops - why did I call that foul?

The overwhelming consensus has been, admit the mistake.

In this particular game, I was the senior umpire; my partner is new to the association. If you were in a similar situation, do you advise the newbie to admit his goof, or let him figure it out on his own?
