Help has to be specific.

I would never go for help on "did the ball beat the runner?" type of complaint. That is purely a judgement call and is nonsensical to ask for help.

If I do go for help, it would be because the coach used the "magic words" and specifically asked if I had a clear line of sight on the play. One such example is a pulled foot, or view of tag/base was blocked and partner might have had a better angle on the play.

And if I did go to my partner for help, I would never say, "What did you see?" I would only want an answer that was specific to the question the coach asked.

The onus is on the coach to ask the right question.
