I had F1 do this this past weekend. There were no runners on but the offensive coach is holding his hands out like what do we do? I laughed to myself because this was discussed this week. It seems like if you talk about it, it will happen soon.

First time that I have had F1 lose the ball backwards. I have F1 have the pitch come off at an angle but not ever backwards.

Now, if the batter squared to bunt and did not pull the bat back.......

Chances are if you wait long enough, the batter will pull it back before the ball reaches the vicinity of the strike zone!
