R1 on 1B, goes to 2B on fly ball. F4 calls for ball, tags 2B and appeals to you that R1 left 1B early. What's your call?
You can not call R1 out because she wasn't tagged nor was 1B tagged. If you signal safe, then you are telling F4 "no, she did not leave early" and she will give up and return the ball to F1. If you make no signal and say "improper appeal" then you are coaching F4, and she may eventually figure it out and run over and tag R1. Now if you call R1 out, will you expect an earfull from the offensive coach claiming that you are helping the defense?
