Let me see if this makes sense to you:
If the appeal is made while the ball is live, it must be made prior to the runner returning to the base.
Does that help?

If both these statements hold:
If the appeal is made while the ball is live, it must be made prior to the runner returning to the base.
If the appeal is made while the ball is not live, it must be made prior to the runner returning to the base.
Then there's a simpler way to say this:
The appeal must be made prior to the runner returning to the base.
But they didn't say that, so the question is why?
