This shouldnt be called.

If you have a runner on you have to give the benefit of the doubt to the defense.

The intent of the rule is to prevent unnecessary delay by throwing it around in between pitches.

That wasnt what the catcher was doing.

Judgement as to intent, meaning, and spirit of the rule is required, not just simply reading black and white words and running out to enforce a rule just read.
