What is this "purposeful distraction" of which you speak. Is it the F2 greeting the batter when he steps in the box? Or, is it him asking about the wife and kids while the first pitch is being delivered? Or, say in the case of the batter being a lawyer in his daytime job, F2 asking F1 "what is the difference between a dead skunk in the road and a dead lawyer?" (Of course, the response would be "there are swerve marks around the skunk.") Is it singing "Texas, Oh Texas," during the entire at bat? Is it directly addressing the batter at anytime during the at bat?? What is this "purposeful distraction?" Please, clearly define it so that we will all know it when we see it.
