Not "made up" DG, it happened TONIGHT [well, actually, I simplified a little] in a Legion game I was doing. The only thing "made up" is YOUR "rule(ing)". If you can get away with making 'em up as you go, good on ya. I prefer to win my protests.
"Coach, the runner from 3B touched home at least a second before the batter touched first. The batter was not forced and he can not retreat past 1b after the game is over. That's my judgement, appeal if you like." Do you really believe I would reverse a game winning hit because of a situation not covered in the rules?

I doubt the batter would be retreating toward home except to celebrate a game winning hit so this whole question is rather mute.
