How does he get out of the way when the catcher chases a foul ball straight back? And yes, what about that umpire interference on a steal? I would never feel comfortable being that close...

This is Phil Cuzzi, and he's been using this close-in stance for a while. Here's another one of him with Orioles catcher Matt Wieters (sorry for the large size).
 I'm sure Phil has no problem opening the gate and not interfering with a catcher's throw. Personally, I would never get that close.
