IMO, this is a good play for Papa C to include in next years BRD.

It appears that an "advantageous 4th out" must be an appeal on a baserunning infraction.

Yet, Jaksa/Roder has the below example which recognizes a 4th out that is NOT an appeal:

Not an appeal: Bases loaded, two outs. The batter singles and R2 is thrown out at home for the third out. The batter has been injured and is unable to advance to first, prompting the defense to throw to first against him: this is an advantageous fourth out and supersedes the former third out, an no run can score.
