PSU of course means the runner can be out for touching the white bag, since they are supposed to touch the contrasting bag.

Thanks youngump. Of course, that's what I meant. I'll edit the original.

If the BR touches the white portion of the double base, it is treated as if the the BR missed the base. That is if there is a play.

Are you saying that defense cannot properly appeal BR touching white bag only unless they also interfered with the play?

Exactly. There is no requirement for interference. Just that a play is being made. In LL, which follows OBR very closely see 7.15.

What's OBR have to do with it? There's no double first base in OBR.

LL Softball follows OBR baseball?

Really?

(Not to mention that I've never seen an OBR baseball game with the double base).

They follow the same process for missed first base appeals. Obviously not the same for use of a double first base.

Absolutely correct Mike, I violated my rule about not posting until after coffee #2. I deleted my post.

And I agree with all the too-late-for-appeal responses.

Although now that I re-read the OP, I see why I said that.
It says "he would like to appeal the runner interfering with the first base(wo)man by stepping on the white part of first base instead of the orange part"
