My question is - who is really delaying the game? Is it the catcher trying to get the runner back to the bag or is it the runner dancing and juking around? If there is no dancing, then there would be no delay.

IMHO: Runner has every right to juke here; he is putting himself at risk of being put out, no?

BTW: I told catcher to make a play on the runner or get the rock back to F1.

That'll work until the catcher throws the ball into centerfield because "the ump told me to...."

Ther's really not much you can you can do with this. Talk to both skippers, they'll probably help. If not, when it's obvious that the reunner is no longer trying to advance, call "TIME," very loudly. It should stop after that.
