A better way to handle?

[senior]

I can't imagine a partner asking for help AFTER calling a foul, but if he did, I'd certainly get real close to him before responding....and then I'd tell him to go get the ketchup from the concession stand, because he'll have to eat the "foul" call. Not in nasty manner, but I'd be leery of this partner until you worked together several more times, and he exhibited some better evidence of rule knowledge. Fair-foul, Ball-strike, safe-out are ones he better not have trouble with, because it all begins with those calls and gets more difficult from there on. A hit ball hitting a base is not something he should need help with, BEFORE or AFTER making a call.
