Very difficult to determine the sequencing withut having seen it but once the PU has resolved the incoming runner, he should choose to observe the runner approaching third if for no other reason than OBS.

Others mechanics may differ.

You're actually better off doing it when it is NOT an auto call by the umpire because then, in addition to the umpire seeing it, it needs to be seen by the defense and they need to properly appeal it.

Pre-2000?

Nope.


There was no protest allowed.

Not relevant.


Thank you for playing.
