What can DC do besides tell defense to not leave their positions, and hope offense ends their celebration and enters the dugout?
At this point, I would call TIME since the ball is still live. I would hesitate and give the B/R a chance to complete her duties of running the bases, just like any other dead ball situation with an award. When it became apparent that the B/R was not going to run to first base, I would entertain and rule on the appeal.
