Stay in the box

LA - SF tonite. Early in the game PU, Joe West, asks for batter's bat and measures the back line of the box which still exists except for about a foot in the middle. He then then tells the guy to not step over the line ( I think). Was there a previous history about this? Because I think the first move is to say move up. These guys have let Lance Berkman and who knows who else start way back there all the time. What got Joe West to enforce and measure the line so early. Does the home team have a reputation for mismarking the lines?
