FED does allow the coach to make the appeal, however, asking "Did you see her miss the plate?", I would not consider a proper appeal. Under a dead ball, the base runners must be allowed to complete their base running responsibilities before the appeal can be honored.

As presented, the plate ump would have to tell the coach that if in fact he is making an appeal, it cannot be accepted until the base runner has entered dead ball territory.
