Base runner leaves the bag before the pitcher has released the ball. Rule books (ASA, Pony) refer to "upon proper appeal". In a 12u FP tourny last weekend, a couple of umps I paired up with called runners out without appeal from the defensive team or coach. What's right - call the out, indicate delayed dead ball, or wait for appeal?

Mike gave you the rule that will explain. But the full answer is umpire rules immediate dead ball and rules the runner out.

WOW,
For a minute there I thought you were going to say, "They waited for an appeal". Answer has been supplied.
