If time has not been called runners may return to touch while you are appealing the first one.

Is there a rule system that allows appeals while time is called?

If the defense appeals that R2 left early...

The only rules I'm familiar with are LL and OBR. In LL if you leave early, there's no appeal. The penalty is that all runners may advance a maximum of one base on the play and no runner may score. What rule systems allow appeals on leaving early?
I really need to get myself a rule differences book if I'm going to do this beyond the LL level.

In FED, the defensive coach may make a verbal dead ball appeal. All he has to do is ask for it, no throwing the ball around. In OBR the ball must be live. But if you believe you have more than one runner you might want to appeal it would be smart to call time so one runner can't go back while you are making an appeal on another. Then, when the ball is put back in play, you can appeal two runners.
