Nope. Assuming the defense properly appeals, of course.

For example, in your situation, I presume the umpire had made the ball live/in play prior to the alert F6's appeal (unless you were playing under FED rules where it wouldn't matter).

The rules require a baserunner to legally run the bases in completing his award. The only ones the offensive manager should be upset with are his runner and base coaches.
