Remember, the catcher's box begins where the batter's box ends. Therefore, just keeping one's feet in the CB doesn't necessarily make one "legal". Obviously, this catcher was way up and close considering the location of the wound.

If you are uncomfortable with the positioning, back her off. If her coach says anything, note that, in your judgment, being up that close puts her in the batter's line of vision when tracking the ball.

You'll probably get a strange look from the coach, but you should be able to sell it with little trouble.
