General Baseball Question: What happens if a pitcher refuses to leave the mound?

Do you remember what happened the next day? 13 more innings. At one point Craig Reynolds was in left field. Came running in to catch a low liner below his knees. Runner from third tags. Since Reynolds was a natural shortstop, he made a SS throw and threw the runner out at home.

On the replay, the camera panned the LA dugout and you could see Lasorda mouth "how did he make that f$&@$#g throw". Good stuff

Wrong thread, but I'll add... nobody's refused to leave the mound today

 

I think this is about as close to refusing you will get...

 

Here's the full video, because it's awesome:



"That's the quickest Tommy Lasorda has moved all year....mark it down."

 

Always hated Lasorda, yet this quote from an old Jim Rome interview will always make me smile:
