After running past first and called safe can you be tagged out if you did not round the bag and if you stay in the baseline and turn toward second base to return to first base?

Answer 1

Yes, if the umpire believes that a player made a turn for second base, he may be called out even if the players intention was to return to first base. This is a judgment call. Players are advised to turn away from second to remove any doubt and assure safe passage back to first base.
