In the situation where R1 misses third base after a hit by B2, what action can the visiting team take?

In the situation where R1 misses third base after a hit by B2, the visiting team has the right to make a verbal appeal after the play is completed. This means that once the play has concluded, and all action has ceased, the defense can appeal that the runner failed to touch third base. The rule allows for appeals to be made verbally, which simplifies the process for the defense as long as they effectively communicate their intent to appeal.

This option is correct because it aligns with the rules regarding appeals in baseball, which state that an appeal cannot be made until after the play has ended. Timing is crucial, and the defense must act before the next pitch or play begins. Other incorrect options may suggest actions not allowed under NFHS rules, such as waiting for the next inning or claiming that the pitcher cannot initiate the appeal, which does not hold in this context since any defensive player can make a valid appeal, not just the pitcher.
