advantage of the lopsided nature of the game where the player on the other side of the fight doesn’t have the potential to throw a ball at the pitcher. And no, running out with a bat isn’t the same thing because the hitter always gets chased down before that happens. Hitters are sitting ducks for pitchers and it’s weak to take advantage of that.

Yet they do, in part because they know they won’t have to face the payback (especially in the AL but really in both leagues). It’s so cowardly.
