When do you finally step in?

It appears the consensus is moving towards the "get it right" position. In FED ball we have less options. We can't call in the UIC (don't have one unless it is the end of the season State Tournament); and in some states (ie. Michigan) we do not allow protests. You have to get it right - at game time.

Normally, a player or coach is calling attention to the issue. So we have time out, and time for umpire conferences. This may be the place for the Chief Umpire to invoke his responsibility to make the final call - if the two umpires can not agree.

My question to all: What if no one complains? Maybe the coach isn't quite sure of the correct rule and decides to keep quiet. But you know that an error has been made - and one the teams is being unfairly penalized because of the error. Do you speak up?
