Guess what? This isn't an appeal play. Technically (by rule) once the BR leaves the field of play, she's out, and on this play, the run would not count. 99.99% of all umpires will ignore this, but once it's brought to their attention, the timing of it being brought to their attention is entirely irrelevant, as (again, technically) it's NOT an appeal, it's simply an out that should have been recorded when it happened ... which would be before BR reaches first.
