But 2-24-4 (Definition of Force) says that the force is removed at the time the trailing runner is put out. So to call this appeal a force without the language present in the NCAA book would be to read something in that isn't in the rule.

9.1.1 Sit O clearly establishes that a properly appealed missed base force is to be judged at the time of the infraction.
