Timing play or not?

It just seems that this appeal is different from a "normal" appeal of say a missed base.

My thinking also. R2, R1, one out. Batter hits a double but misses 1B. R2 and R1 score, but R1 missed 3B. Regardless of who missed a base first, if the defense appeals R1's miss of 3B and then the BR's miss of 1B, the run is nullified. But if they appeal in reverse order, the run counts. But that's because on a missed base, you're not out until you're called out on appeal. With a strikeout, I would say you're out when you struck out, not after the umpires talk it over and decide you struck out.

But that's just my own logic, which isn't always the same as the rulesmakers'.
