He did it properly the first time and you should have called the runner out. There is no requirement to "get set on the mound."

Under every code except Federation, the appeal can only be made when the ball is live. If the ball has become dead, then the only way for a proper appeal is for the pitcher to be on the rubber with the ball, and for the umpire to put the ball in play.

In your situation, the ball was still live, so there was no requirement for the ball to go to the pitcher.

BTW - there is no requirement for the pitcher to step off either.

Finally, I hope you scored the run.
