As I agree the game the integrity of the game needs to be upheld but would the same call be made if the tables where slightly turned?
Situation:
Count on Batter is two strikes and less than three balls with first base unoccupied. Pitcher throws a wild pitch, uncatchable by F2. Batter takes level swing, no intention of hitting pitch, but knows he has excellent chance getting to first on dropped third strike rule.
Is the pitch called a ball and batter forced to stay at plate? If not and is called a strike then it appears we'd have two different rulings for the same action do we not?
