I watched the UCLA-Oregon game yesterday.
On a play at the plate, the catcher attempted a tag and missed. The runner missed home plate. The umpire signaled and called the runner safe. The runner then touched the plate.
Under that situation (runner was not tagged out and runner has not touched the base), shouldn't the umpire refrain from making a signal?
