I've seen it -- at a JuCo game. The batter reached nearly the dugout, then ran to first when F2 tried to "throw it around" and threw it over F5's head.
When the coach came out:
C: "Bob, how far does he get?"
B: "Until he reaches the dugout.
C: "I've never heard that before."
B: Silence. (After all, the coach didn't ask a question.)
C: "Are you sure."
B: "Yes."
C: Walks back to dugout.
