But in Fed baseball . . .

The replies are correct. There has to be a definite appeal by the defense. However, in Fed baseball, because in this situation the missed base was one to which the runner was forced, the umpire would call the runner out for missing 2B. This play doesn't have an official name, but it seems to be referred to as the "inadvertent appeal play" on the web, even though it's technically not an appeal, it's just a force.

It is also one of the dumbest rules in the book.
