Did MLB officially say that Segura should've been called out for a 7.01 rule violation?

When the pitcher was in the "pitching position", Segura actually was advancing to 3rd, not running backwards. Only subsequently, in the course of playing action, did he end up going back to 1st. Which was legally unoccupied.

Are you sure MLB declared this illegal and that the umpires ruled improperly?
Wrong column. He followed up with a correction column.
