How often do you do it?
Is it something you do with a seasoned partner or do you only do it with a rookie?
It's still something I would never do, and I would take great exception if it was called by the plate umpire while I was on the bases.
It's also one of those things that gets brought up at schools, and the consensus has always been that it's one of those things thats better left to the base umpire. (credibility).

I have called it several times behind the plate with a partner...always on a runner from 2nd....granted.....most of the times were with an unseasoned partner.
Once with a partner who admittedly was not paying attention.......
I do not go looking for boogers on baserunning infractions.....but when one grossly presents itself......I don't ignore it.

It must be a gross error on the Base Runner.
