bases loaded, 2 outs. B1 hits a double in the gap but misses first base. R1 and R2 both score before R3 is thrown out at 3rd for the 3rd out of the inning. Defense stays on the field and properly appeals B1 missing 1st base.
Defensive coach now has the option of turning this '4th out' into the '3rd out' rule applications and no runs would score.
(in ASA, all runs that scored on the play would still count as a '4th out' appeal can only be made on a runner who has scored)
