Just as an FYI - This situation is specifically covered in FED. In the Case Book (I think 8.3.3 but I'm not sure cause I don't have it with me) the FED explanation is that if a runner completely misses the bag and the fielder touches the bag at any time before the runner turns to come back to the base it's an OUT. FED clearly states in the explanation that the act of touching the base is its own appeal and nothing further is necessarily (e.g. fielder does not have to bring the umpire's attention to the touch, etc.)
Makes the call "easy" (for FED games).
