So would these be mockeries?

1) In a tournament with pitchers limited to innings pitched, offensive coach notices that opposing pitcher will go over his innings allowed if he records one more out (innings are recorded by thirds). Coach instructs batter to step way out in front of the batter's box and hit the ball in order to get the automatic out.

2) In a tournament with a time-limit, coach of losing home team with two outs and only one minute in time limit instucts batter to do as described above.

3) In a tournament in which the team winning by one run needed to beat their opponent by a certain number of runs in order to advance from pool play has a pitcher who intentionally walks the lead-off batter and balks 3 consecutive times so that he scores the tying run so the game can go into extra innings.
