I was taught: at first base ONLY,
1. If the runner beats the ball, signal safe: you must signal safe/out on a play at 1B to indicate whether the runner beat the ball.
2. If the defense appeals the missed base, rule on the appeal. F3 gloving the throw with his foot on the base is not by itself an appeal, and 8.2.3 has FINALLY been deleted in the new case book (it had an "accidental" appeal play).
