R2 takes a lead off second when the batter hits a line drive to the short stop -- who looks R2 from going any further... then throw wild into the bleachers attempting to get the batter runner at first. Umpire calls "time" and awards two bases. R2 never goes back to re-touch second but jogs along with his base awards. Does the defense have the opportunity, based on ORB, to appeal that R2 should have re-touched before taking his base(s) award? I'm not asking about appeals - but the rules application of re-touching after being awarded bases.
