In a different play, if a batter is getting set at the plate and were to hit the catcher glove or kick up dirt on a back swing, I would call time and allow everyone to re-set.
In the play mentioned in this thread, I hope I would be alert enough to do the same, before the runner scored.
If the play is as I understand it, I hope the interpretation will be reconsidered. I think the situation that occurred is outside the spirit of the game. If it stands, every batter should begin to "accidentally" swing at the ball as it is being thrown back from the catcher to the pitcher.
