And what are the NCAA and OBR penalties? Are they different from FED?

Bu the unwritten rules? Maybe.
I'm sorry, I didn't add my sarcasm to my previous comment. My comment was directed at JJ, as he said he knows the NCAA and OBR rules. I don't know what rules there are to penalize a trick play in any code of baseball.

If memory serves, there's an OBR case play (which I believe is based upon an actual occurrence) where F1 stepped off and then faked a pickoff throw to first base, and someone from the first base dugout threw a ball down right field foul territory. I believe the ruling was for the person who threw the ball and/or the manager to be ejected for unsporting conduct.

Now that I think of it, perhaps it was a peeled potato that was thrown out of the dugout......

It was a catcher, who had spirited one out to his position.

There are no penalties in NCAA and OBR. Well, maybe a ball in the ear at some point...

I saw this once: (high school game)

A 1st and 3rd situation. R1 stealing. The catcher receives the pitch, comes up throwing and actually throws the white-colored sponge that he kept in his catcher's mitt. The runner on 3rd, thinking that the ball was being thrown, broke for the plate. But, obviously, the catcher still had the ball. He was caught in a rundown.

I was working the bases when this happened. My partner (the PU) simply killed the play and made all the runners go back. He admonished the catcher - and play continued. I don't think that was technically the correct ruling, but everybody seemed happy with it.
