Would you ask for help?

I'm blocked and don't see any contact, nor does my partner. In each case the B/R was thrown out at first and in each case the player was ejected before he made it back to his dugout.

After the first incident the manager asked me to get help. I explained that the BU would kill it right away if he saw anything. The manager accepted it but his player just kept on arguing.

Similar situation with the second one. Manager asked me to get help. I tell him that it wasn't an appealable play in the top of the inning and it's not appealable now. He's okay but his player drops an F-bomb.

It worked with the right person, didn't it?
