Question

Hi,
I was doing a girls softball 10 game and I had a play where the runner hits a ground ball to the shortstop and beats the throw but totally misses first base. She immediately turns around and goes back to the base. The defense appealed it before the next pitch and I called her out. The team that was batting argued that even though she missed the base she was on it now. I said she missed the base and there was a dead ball appeal so she is out even though she is on the base now. Was that the correct call.

Not sure about softball, but in baseball, the defense needs to appeal the missed base before the batter/runner returns. Once the batter/runner returns and touches, no appeal would cause him/her to be

How can you be called out on a missed base appeal if you're standing on it?
