Stepping on the plate is no tactic, period. There is no penalty for it, unless the batter makes contact with the ball. If they hit it with the bat, then we have a dead ball and an out. If it hits them, then it will be dead ball and either a strike or a ball depending on whether or not I judge it to be in the zone.
Oh, I'd have to say that it was a tactic. Maybe not a useful or effective tactic. But not all tactics are useful or effective.
