I'm not an umpire and I certainly aren't beisbol rules knowledgeable, but.....does the umpire have any choice but to allow the appeal?

....balk the pitcher as he steps off, now you can't appeal.

My umpire manual is missing the mechanic that I should cheat to prevent one of the teams from cheating.
