Default Re: Are baseball umpires getting help from the booth?

I'm pretty sure no umpire can overrule another umpire's call. The umpire who made the call has to change his mind. I know there have been instances watching games where my reflex led me to form an opinion on a call, but thinking back I thought I made a mistake. I think part of the reason umpires "confer" is to make it look good for when the first umpire just changes his mind.
