This thought just occurred to me. If the catcher has the d3s in her glove and a right handed batter begins walking toward her 3rd base dug out. Could you reasonable argue she was trying to avoid a tag? Could the catcher say to the umpire I'd like to tag her but she is more the three feet out of my reach. If there is a runner on 3rd you probably don't want to chase the batter to the dug out.
No, it is not
