If what Ichiro did was allowed, then you would see people coming to a stop as they approach home and then stutterstepping and crap to avoid the tag and then circling around behind the now-prone catcher who fell flat on his face while trying to make the tag.

Could probably find twenty more if I spent ten minutes.
Seriously though, sounds like I've played more baseball than you've watched. It is a rare play, but it happens. It occurs less in the Majors because catchers play their position pretty flawlessly in the majors and dudes can pretty much throw the ball exactly where they want to. Like I said before: if you want to be upset with something about the play, hate on the cut-off man's shitty throw.
