Since I don't see any smilies, I must assume you are serious, so I've got to ask, "Are you serious?"
This not only makes the rule simpler to understand for the umpires, coaches and players, it is so clear-cut, it basically forces the teams to play in a manner less likely to cause an injury.
You have got to be a baseball guy!
