I'm going to argue a second possible appeal--in returning to third, he did not touch the plate. So even if he got to third before the ball went dead, wouldn't you allow an appeal at home for failing to retouch it on the way back?

In OBR...NO...as long as he touched home plate after being told to score after the ball went into DBT. OBR has the "last time by" doctrine. As long as he touched the plate (or any base) on his "last time by" he is not liable to being called "out" on appeal for missing it on a previous time by.
