While Ozzy's post #18 may have been over the top, it was in direct response to rngrck's post admonishing Ozzy -- after Ozzy's reasonable post wondering from where these questions come.
Not to pick on you (I'm serious about that), but even your post here (
"I suggest you read...") could be considered by some to be inflamatory (and, I'm not saying SDS would take it that way). It's just an example of how what's said and what's read are often different.
Better, perhaps, would be "I don't think Ozzy's post #18 was reasonable."
"I" words instead of "you" words -- see the difference?

If there were no runners on base or I didn't sense any intent on the part of the batter to make the pitcher balk, I would also consider warning the batter to be careful, cause he could end up wearing a fastball on the knuckles.

No rules basis for any of this (absent intent to make the pitcher balk -- and hanging the hands over the strike zone is not going to cut it).
