It is not new, revised.

Au Contraire, old bearded one... ASA themselves declares the rule as "NEW"!

Scott, I'm not confused as to their intent ... just pointing out with a bit of whimsy that they did say that all of the exceptions are only "unless properly appealed".

I was wondering how the defense goes about appealing a successful put out, or even better - what the proper mechanics would be for the umpire who has just seen the put out but has to wait on the appeal to make the ruling.

As I said, just a bit of whimsicality.
