Sliding into first with a double bag?

[RKBUmp]

The batter/runner is suppose to go to the colored portion of the bag, but, if they dont it is an appeal the defense must make before the runner returns to the base. Since the batter/runner slid into the base and never left it there really isnt anything to appeal.

What if she is still only touching the white (never touched the colored) portion and F3 is holding foot on the white while stating the appeal for not touching the colored portion?

There is literally no way to get an out here. You MUST appeal before BR returns to first... since she never left first in this case, there's no timeframe available for an appeal.

Agreed, that is the verbiage I was trying to come up with

Of course if she never left first, it is impossible for her to return to first.

Once the batter/runner has achieved first base the entire base becomes one big base. No appeal to made therefore no out.
