The umpires did not acknowledge the appeal.  When the umpire put the ball back in play, the defense made a proper appeal, and the batter-runner was called out.  What if the home run was a "walk off" homer.  Would the defense have to request the umpire to give them a ball to make an appeal? |  Sounds good to me.
