While I have heard infielders say "back", I have
not encountered one saying "go". I must agree with
the idea of telling said fielder(s) to knock it off.
I have yet to have one continue after an admonishment
about it. I did have one high school coach come to
me about it, and ask why I told his fielder that
he could not use such terminology toward the
baserunner. I informed him that it could be considered
"verbal obstruction", thereby awarding a base to
the runner. He politely thanked me, told the player
in question to cut it out, and all was well.
