This is a good question that I've seen raised before without a good answer being given. At what point exactly would the defense lose its right to appeal BOO, given that no pitches are thrown on the IBB?

When the coach requests the IBB? When the umpire grants time to administer it? When the umpire points to first base to issue the walk (heh, heh, heh!)? When the batter actually touches first base? When the next batter enters the batter's box? When a pitch is thrown to the next batter?
One would think this question has already been answered. The NFHS rule book also covers slow-pitch where intentional walks without throwing the pitches are the norm. Referring to the 2017 rule book, rule 2-1-4 says an appeal must be made before a) before the next legal or illegal pitch, [...]. Contrast that with the BOO appeal, 7-1-2 Penalty 2, which must be made before the next pitch (legal or illegal), or prior to an intentional base on balls (SP) [...]. "SP" has been deleted from the 2018 book.

Situation: bases loaded. B4 is the proper batter. B5 hits a SAC fly to score R1 (on third). R2 advances to 3rd. Betty Bomber steps into the box and the defense requests an intentional walk. With Betty on 1st, the defense appeals that B5 batted out of order. By 7-1-2 Penalty 2, we deny the appeal. Now the defense appeals that R1 left early. Do you grant the appeal?
