On-Deck Hitter

It has become a local custom of the summer leagues here to allow the on-deck hitter to stand on the side of the batter, i.e., he will stand on the third-base side when there is a right-handed batter regardless if it is the side of his own team. While I'm not particularly concerned about one team taunting the other, are there any liability issues that one should consider when allowing a player to stand in the wrong place in live-ball territory? Is this a practice that umpires should stop (for CYA reasons), or am I being an OOO?
