What if he did it to the first baseman who had his back to him (and not in his way) while he was rounding the bag on a single to LF?

This isn't high school or select travel teams, coach. Pro ball has long differentiated between home and the other bases when it comes to hard hits by runners.
This is rookie league. This is high school draftees, 16 year olds from South America and 19 year old umpires fresh from PBUC. Everyone is learning and trying to show they understand the pro game.
I see no issue with the runner.
