Can you appeal a call by the home plate umpire?
Yes, there are three ways that an appeal can be called that I can think of off-hand. The most common appeal is when a batter makes an attempt at a pitch, but holds up at the last second, called a "Check Swing." Since the home plate umpire's priority is to see where the ball is pitched, he usually doesn't have a good view of the batter's check-swing. When he makes his call, either the catcher or the batter can make an appeal to the first or third base umpire. The umpire on the baseline can clearly see if the batter has swung past the plate or not. Another appeal is called if a ball appears that it could or could not have been a home run. In this case, the manager can appeal the call, forcing the umpires to get together and view the play on instant replay. The third newest appeal is when a close play is made and the manager does not agree that the umpire made the right call. He can appeal and the umpires will check the instant replay to see if the appeal is successful. This appeal is a one-time deal for each manager. If the appeal is successful, the call is reversed and the manager may still appeal again. If the appeal is not successful, the call stays and the manager loses his right to appeal again on a close play. He may still appeal on home run calls.
How do you make an appeal play in baseball?
If you're talking about an appeal of a runner missing a base, or leaving a base before a fly ball is caught, the proper procedure is as follows: After play has completed, the pitcher, with the ball, steps on the pitching rubber and comes set. He then steps off the rubber legally and throws the ball to a defensive player near the base they are appealing was missed. This player then steps on the base. If the appeal is granted, the umpire will impose remedies as appropriate. If the appeal is denied, the umpire will so indicate. Note: an appeal is made while the ball is live. This means that any other runner may advance at their own risk.

What is basball timeout rule?
This is rule 5.10, which states, in essence, that the umpire shall call "time out" in certain situations. An important part of the rule is that no umpire shall call "time out" while play is in progress except in case of light failure or when an accident incapacitates a player or umpire. Also, commonly mis-understood, is that only an umpire can call time out; a coach or player can only "request" time out, which must be granted by the umpire before the time out actually occurs.

What does a baseball umpire's era mean?
I must say when I saw that statistic last night it was the first time I had heard of it. But the way I understand it, and umpire's ERA stands for the number of earned runs scored in a game while the umpire is behind home plate. A higher umpire ERA generally means that the umpire favors the hitter by having a smaller strike zone. A lower umpire ERA generally means the umpire favors the pitcher by having a larger strike zone.
Once an umpire declares a foul ball can it be overturned?
Depending on the call all umpires can reverse a call but the crew chief supersedes all umpire ...Clarification:The chief umpire for the game, aka. plate umpire makes the final decision on a call when another umpire ask for help. If the umpire does not ask for help no other umpire should interfere with the call. The home plate umpire is the chief umpire, unless the league appoints an umpire as the chief umpire -- MLB appoints a crew chief for every umpire crew, all calls where umpires ask for help will come down to his final judgement. You can find all of this in 9.02 and 9.04 of the rules
