During game tonight, had this happen.
R1 on 3B, R2 on 2B, no outs. Batter hits a line drive between
F5 and F6, R2 takes off at the crack of the bat. R1 hesitates.
F7 makes a great catch. R2 going full tilt, passes R1 who had only
taken a couple steps toward HP. R1 tags and goes home without a
throw being made. 1 out on the catch, 2nd out on R2 passing R1.
Defensive coach calls time and wants to appeal R1 out of leaving
early [not re-tagging]
Also informs me that the run cannot score since the appeal
would make the 3rd out.

Tell the D coach to sit down, two outs is all he is going to get on the play. Even as stupid a play R2 executed, you can only put him/her out once on the same play.
