HR, and R3 touches home, I'm heading to the truck.

If they wanted to appeal, in FED rules, they don't have to do anything but verbal appeal.

But since the defense left the field and the umpires left the field there can be no appeal.

To answer your questions:

The ball is dead once it goes over the fence. Did we do right?

I would have headed to the fence.

Should the runners on 1st and 2nd have been called out for leaving the baseline?

No, the ball is dead.

Can the defensive team appeal?

Yes, but they have to do it before leaving the diamond.

What is the correct procedure for handling this situation?

Since the BR touched and R3 touched, the run counts, so I would just tell the coach that and then we don't have to worry about the appeals etc.,

Thanks
David
