What else are you going to do? Call her out for leaving the field and ignore the fact that she touched home? You could get her for running the bases in reverse order. End result will be the same in all three, no run and three outs. And you'll only seem crazy if you make the call that seems to be supported by rule.

Unfortunately, this is one of those cases where common sense is not the correct call. I'm referring to the rule as written, not common sense or whether the umpire would seem crazy or not.
