5-run homers? 9-run homers?
There's no way, in a situation like this, I'm letting a batter come to the plate. The play is not over. If defense doesn't know what the H is going on, I'm telling the batter not to get into the box. Eventually, something will happen. You can't just call him out, but you can't allow a pitch to occur to a further batter.
To answer your initial question - yes, a tag (or a force at 3rd) is required.
