Maybe trying to enforce 8-2-H in USA that says ”When a batter-runner steps back towards home to avoid or delay a tag by a fielder” the ball is dead and the batter-runner is out?We had an ump who called the batters out if they made any motion that wasn't directly toward 1b. Literally as soon a batter took one step backwards he'd call her out.
