If there is no basis for calling the runner out, then the runner is not breaking a rule and can't be making a mockery of the game, if that rule exists.
As a defensive coach I tell my pitcher to get on the plate and pitch, if they want their runner to start from right field, good for them. At younger levels that steal at second is going to happen with a player on third. Odds are in favor of offense, if defense makes play on the runner, (at the younger levels).
