This might have happened to me once. Focusing on the pitcher and ball leaves very little chance for observing the catcher. In my case, not ducking like in the OP video. I saw a glimpse of the glove, figured the pitch was catchable. Nothing conclusive enough to eject or even warn; and no video. Partner did not remember noticing anything unusual.
