I think this type of situation would be to simply ask the umpire to call "Time" and ask the umpire to have the runner return to the base and to not start his lead until he puts the ball back in play. Many Babe Ruth umpires are just getting started...give 'em a hand and it eventually it will benefit all of the teams. The player may not know he's doing anything wrong either. This can be a teaching opportunity for everybody.
