Coach should have appealed batting out of order, and not asked, "why wasn't B4 out". ASSUME B4 was out on the 3rd strike and appeal B4 batting when B5 should be up.
Granted, the result SHOULD have been the same, but approaching it differently is more likely to get the result... after all, if the umpires are clueless enough to let B4 keep batting without saying anything at all - they are clueless enough to make the ruling they did on your field.
