When I played school ball in the 1960s, appeals had to be made with a live ball, as in OBR. (This was in Connecticut. I don't know what code we played under. I think we all assumed it was just "baseball rules.") I remember screwing up an appeal of a runner who had obviously missed 2B. I got the ball on the mound, but as play began ignorantly stepped off and asked for time out, so the ump granted time but of course made no call on the appeal.
