Runner Gives Himself Up

[DG]

I had one this year, also similar. R1 steals 2B, B1 swings, catcher does not throw. When R1 stands up from his slide SS tells him foul ball. He trots back toward 1B. Everybody, on both sides is hollering, one side at the runner, the other side at the fielders. He makes it 1B with no throw and no tag. One side is wanting an out, for running backwards, the other side is wanting him to be awarded 2B. I ain't never seen this before and figure, no harm no foul, he can steal it again if he wants to. He's not making a mockery of the game, he is just confused, and was confused by believing something a defensive player said (bad idea).
