Speaking ASA

Since this is an "unwritten" rule, maybe you should start inforcing the written rules for your own protection. Stupid on-deck rule is what puts you in this situation.

Since the defense recovered the bat and failed to remove it from playable territory, I would have to rule a blocked ball, but that does not mean I'm automatically moving runners up two bases from the throw.
