She made no attempt to tag the runner coming from 2B? She immediately threw the ball to 2B? She didn't throw to home or try to tag R1 who was no where close to scoring? Sounds to me like she was standing on the bag for the leaving too early appeal. Sounds like everyone thought this too, except you.

Live Ball Appeal....RS 1-B. In all games an appeal may be made during a live ball by any fielder in possession of the ball touching the base missed or left too soon on a caught fly ball, or by tagging the runner committing the violation if they are still on the playing field.

There is nothing here about have to "verbalize" the appeal. Granted it can help in a confusing situation (overstepping 1B), but there was nothing confusing about yours.
