Being in a 1-umpire system, I don't necessarily get to see the entire play and make the who made the best play judgement. IMO, that really shouldn't have any bearing on the call you make anyway. Does the fielder who makes a spectacular dive but have a fly ball bounce right in front of the glove and into the mitt still get the out? I try and make the best judgement call that I can based on what I see. If I start hearing the 'tie goes to the runner' line, I usually tell them there is no such thing as a tie and let it go at that. I really haven't had any major arguments calling the close plays this way.
