Correct call?

[Pete in AZ]

I know that I've seen this question before. The discussion on McGriffs centered on whether we should use the J/R mechanic for lower level baseball. I do a lot of semi-pro and adult rec baseball and have some really good partners. I doubt they would call it as suggested when this play was called differently in the pros this year. An appeal has to be obvious. If you have a wide throw at 1st and the batter-runner misses 1st, what do you do if the fielder walks over to the base an steps on it? That is an unmistakeable appeal according to a couple of you. What if he is 10 years old and the same thing happens but he is just tagging 1st because that is what he is supposed to do and doesn't realize that that is also an appeal? Do you still use the same mechanics and spend ten minutes explaining yourself?

I'm new here but just find it funny that the question pops up in the same form over here and the same guys answered it right away exactly like they did over on McGriffs.
