Running out of the basepath

[Dukat]

I want to see what everyone thinks about this very common situation that I have seen called both ways multiple times. This play happened at a game where my brother and I were calling last year and we still disagree on what the call should be. (NOTE: He made a call and I did not disagree with him on the field but we have discussed it together many times since when we see similar plays in our games) A runner coming home and is about 6-8 feet away from the catcher when she sees the catcher catch the ball. At that point the runner takes a huge turn around to go back to third but the catcher at that point is not close enough to attempt a tag but is running toward the runner. Do you call the runer out for being out of the basepath or not since she is not officially avoiding a tag yet?
