Anyone with some insight. I've always wondered this, and if its possible to intentionally swing at a wild pitch with 2 strikes and run to first. It's possible, but you've gotta be real quick on your feet to recognize that pitch is going to the backstop. I used to do the other thing you were talking about when I'd get IBBd in coed softball. Swing on the first 2 to go down 0-2 in the count. This was of course not baseball though. My thing is I think guys should let infield fly rule pop ups drop. I'd figure at least 5 times a year you'd have some dumb guy getting doubled off since they don't understand the rule. there's no point in catching them, right? Well its an assumed out. The runners must tag up to advance. What SSR is saying is that once in awhile its possible to catch someone off the bag, not understanding that an out was called, and you can double them off. what do you mean by assumed? iirc the batter is definitively called out, so theres no force. but if you drop it some moran may freak out and think they have to get to the next base.
