Batter's Box - Stay In or Step Out?

[Dakota]

Several things on this:

1) If the PU was aware of the coach admitting that he instructed F2 to throw at the batter, and F2 did so, both should have been ejected. On the spot. No warnings.

2) There has to be a play for there to be interference. Catchers fake pick-off throws all the time. If the catcher did not throw, I'd have to see something pretty convincing to rule interference.

3) A thrown ball is a thrown ball. And a live ball, as youngump says, unless it goes out of play. If it does go out of play, then runners on base get a 2 base award.
