Rule 7.10 says: Any appeal under this rule must be made before the next pitch, or any play or attempted play. If the violation occurs during a play which ends a half-inning, the appeal must be made before the defensive team leaves the field.
He says that part of 7.10 applies to any appeal. I say not, especially since it says, "Any appeal under this rule". And, Rule 6.07 says nothing about the defense leaving the field.
