Roder's "no subsequent appeal" not withstanding
The OP does strike a parallel to Question 6 on the quiz at Roder's link. Baseball Quiz Just an aside: in one of the strangest wrinkles in all rule sets, in ASA softball, the defense can get one out or the other but not the tag and then the appeal. In other words, if on a two-out force play (including BR at 1B) the runner passes but misses the bag while the run scores, and then starts to scramble back to the base, the defense can of course tag him out. But to nullify the run, they must accompany the tag with an obvious appeal of the miss. Without that appeal, they are simply tagging a runner off the base, and then they cannot appeal the miss for an advantageous fourth out. Further, there is no "vicinity of the base" clause; a miss is a miss, and can be appealed immediately.
