NCAA rules and interpretations
here.
Like Manny, I don't know of another organization that treats leaving early as a delayed dead ball or allows more than one runner to be called out.
If you know of one, please let the board know.
In the NCAA case book:
A.R. 12-38.
With the bases loaded, the batter takes the pitch but the runners
on first and third base both leave early. Are both runners out?
RULING: The defensive coach may choose between taking the results
of the play (a ball or strike as called by the plate umpire, bases remain
loaded) or "no pitch", the batter remains at bat and the offending
runners are both declared out.
(Rule 12.14.2)
