- Runners at first and second, one out. 2-2 count
- Runners are going on a double steal
- Batter check-swings
- Catcher throws to second wildly
- Runner on second scores THEN runner from first is thrown out at third
- Defense appeals the check swing and BU rules a swing
- Does the run score?
- If it is a timing play then YES it does. If the appeal is the THIRD out then NO it doesn't
The appeal on the check swing is the 2nd out and R1 thrown out at 3rd is the 3rd out. Score the run.

Also, the PU should not wait for an appeal with an "anything & 2" count. He should immediately go for the appeal. The advanced mechanic would be the BU would cocme up with the appeal without a request from the PU.
