FED: 8-2 PENALTY (you can read the whole thing, but here's the part that you're most concerned with):
"Appeals must be made (1) before the next legal or illegal pitch; (2) at
the end of an inning, before the pitcher and all infielders have left fair territory;
(3) before an intentional base on balls is granted; or (4) on the last play of
the game, an appeal can be made until the umpires leave the field of play."
OBR: 7.10 (basically the same as FED):
"Any appeal under this rule must be made before the next pitch, or any play
or attempted play. If the violation occurs during a play which ends a half-inning,
the appeal must be made before the defensive team leaves the field."
