"continuous action" ??

#3
i don't see how the defense can appeal again once they throw the ball out of play. where do you find the reference to "continuous action"
OBR
7.10 explantion following sub section (d)
"successive appeals may not be made on a runner at the same base. If the defensive team on its first appeal errs, a request for a second appeal on the same runner at the same base shall not be allowed by the umpire. (Intended meaning of the word "err" is that the defensive team in making an appeal threw the ball out of play.)"

i can't find a distinction which allows for a 2nd appeal just because the first appeal took place during "continuous action"
