But what if you believe it was done to try to make the runner think the official called it?

Though I don't think a player is smart enough to emulate the call, my response is still "Nope". Stupid is as stupid does. I am not the player's fairy godmother.
Not only do they need to play the game, but runners are the only people in the game which are allowed additional audio/visual aides on the field in the form of base coaches.
