No one has to "leave" anything,,,just put a foot on the colored bag beforfe the appeal.
Since the overriding argument on most threads here is that the rules are meant to be followed then this is one where the literal reading of the double base rule would result in a successful appeal.
Having said that, I would not honor the appeal and argue that the runner clipped a portion of the colored base.
