BRD - very first item.

FED - "During a live ball appeal the defense must make a verbal appeal unless 'a play by its very nature is imminent and obvious to the offense.' EXCEPT If the action is continuing and the tagged base is a 'force' base, the defense makes the appeal merely by stepping on the missed base."

The attached play says for the first base play, casually touching the base is an appeal in FED but in NCAA and OBR it must be unmistakable.
