I see them call it just about every time. A discussion on umpire.org is going on now. Everyone says call it with one exception by a person with questionable (to me at least) motivations. Those who have been to Evans' academy say he teaches to always call it.
It is especially important on a ball very near the line. It is possible to have a ball touched in the air over the line, then dropped so you see that determination just might have to happen before you know if it's caught or not. And then everyone really needs to know and know now if it's fair or foul because it governs ensuing action. Don't get lazy on calls. Make a call every time so you're in the habit and don't forget at a crucial time.
