That's interesting.

p.s. was the ball actually dead?
From the way I was told, yes the ball was dead and had been put back in play when F1 engaged the pitcher's plate and R1 sprinted off to get in the rundown. Either that, or it stayed live and the DC thought that the pitcher had to engage the plate so the PU could put it in play. Regardless, the DC didn't have a clue about what was going on. The person who told me this story was the offensive coach. He got a run from the guy leaving early at 3rd and the DC had no idea he could either A) Appeal during a dead ball, or B) Appeal after the rundown for the fourth out.
