Notice nothing I pointed out involves the situation changing such that one would change their strategy. However, one might have a slightly different infield strategy with a runner on first compared to a runner on second, or third, or none at all because he scored. Foul balls in the stands change nothing. Unsuccessful pick off attempts change nothing. Dropped foul balls that are errors change nothing. I'm just asking why "one pitch" isn't as advertised.
