Heard a coach discussing having a batter, with a 3 and 1 count and a runner on 3rd, run to first if the next pitch is a dropped strike. The purpose is to try and score the runner from 3rd if the catcher has lost track of the count and throws to first. What do you think of this?
Personally, I think a catcher confident enough to throw to first with a runner on third won't lose track of the count.
