This depends on what you mean by "a ruling."

Umpires have always been free to consult with each other on who had the best view of a play. If one umpire makes on judgement (say, the runner was tagged out) and another umpire makes another one (the fielder missed the tag), the head umpire can make a decision on who had the best view of the play; and can then over-rule an original call.

Catchers can appeal to the umpire at first or second base on whether a batter "checked his swing." This will happen a few times every game.

Presently, umpires can CHOOSE to use TV replays to determine if a ball was (or was not) a home run. In this case, umpires might decide to overturn an initial call.

MLB Union rules state that an arbitator can overturn or reduce a suspension. This happens periodically.
