That makes sense, but what is the mechanic to direct the batter to first other than saying "Ball Four"? And what constitutes refusal? Usually pitchers go directly to first on a walk before putting a warm-up jacket on. Would leaving the dirt circle around the plate while walking to the dugout constitute refusal like on a D3K?
