They literally sit there for a good solid 5 seconds....
"You guys gonna finish this play or what?"

5 seconds! I can't hardly beleive that no one said "Tag her with the ball." or "Touch the base."

They have got to know that something isn't finished if you are just standing there with no call...

I assume you would have called her out if proper appeal was made for not touching the base. What more can a person do?
