zm,

I'm out of town on business at the moment and don't have my FED books with me, but I don't believe that's correct.

I can't quote you "chapter and verse" at the moment, but I believe that Dash's assertion that the (solely) verbal appeal in FED is only sustained when the ball is dead and any runners have "completed" their baserunning.
