Not if all the elements of the LBR being in effect are satisfied |

Nothing, other than "no pitch" |
Indulge me, please. If we can call a runner out under the LBR in this situation, why wouldn't we allow the most favorable result for the offense if pitcher foolishly pitches through the stop sign? For example, a ball added to the count, or perhaps, a home-run if it's hit over the fence in fair territory.
