What I really thought was interesting was that in the first four responses no one gave an anwer on what they'd do.

I'd call him out for leaving the basepath. His basepath is to home and home only. The purpose of the basepath rule is so a fielder doesn't have to chase a runner to apply a tag. The catcher went to apply the tag. The man reversed and went the opposite direction of where he had to be. The catcher shouldn't have to chase him any longer to do his job.
To me, that's leaving his basepath when a play is being made upon him. He's out.

Just my opinion,
