You are both right! The original play was a question of a rule interp (touching the colored portion of the base) during a live ball appeal of the runner leaving the base prior to the touch (item 2 in ASA appeals) Now #75 was focusing on the use of the colored portion in his original post, BUT the colored portion was attempting to be used in the act of making a live ball appeal on the runner, so Irish's reference to the appeal is a valid one to enter all rules references (which you so vividly reamed everyone for not doing) reguarding the original play.

Why are you, Tom and Larry trying to make sense out of this totally useless thread?

BTW, I think it's time for a thread on homonyms.
