Well, think it all the way through. How are they refusing to bat? The pitcher is never "ready" - so no pitch ever started. Seems to me the other team is just as "guilty" of not playing as the leading team.

That said, there's nothing worse than the 14-0 in the 2nd inning game where the leading team gets on base and steps off on purpose to get out. To me, that shows up the other team WAY more than simply saying, "We don't need to bat this inning."
