Isn't this the situation where no appeal is necessary if the runners fail to complete running the bases? I haven't looked this one up yet, but I think there's a case play almost exactly like this in the MLBUM and JEA might have one as well.

As umpires we could possibly have two outs on this play if there are less than two outs at the time of the homerun and both runner abandon their efforts to continue running the bases...if that's the case, we could still have a tie game right? With two outs...we might still have a tie game based on a time play and the B/R does reach 1B.

I'm going to look it up now.
