There are a lot of factors that would determine this play.
1) level of play
2) Did both teams equally have brain freeze at the same time
3) Did they both leave at the same time or did 1 bait the other into leaving.

But if this is an older division game, let's remember the offensive team has runs riding on this. If the runners abandond running, they are out. Call them out of the baseline, whatever. It could be also thought of like a drop 3rd strike. The batter can run to 1st, until they reach basically dead ball
area, which then you bang them out for abandondment.
