Ah, the intentionally dropped ball rule. One of my favorites. I really dislike the way this rule is set up. The umpire has no recourse if the defense tries this. The only thing that can happen is that (hopefully) the umpire is on their game and understands the rule, calls it right away, and even then will be yelled at. I would like to see the runners advance 1 base if the defense attempts this little trick so the they will see no need to even try it.
