In a high-level, low-scoring game, w/ very good pitchers, etc., then yes. ...
But in a typical travel-ball game (consider that most travel teams would be classified as B), you average about 1 run per team at-bat. With a runner at 2B to start the inning, then 2 runs is the average. So I'd be hesitant to do something that increases my chances of scoring only 1 run in that scenario.
If you are the home team in an ITB and the visiting team did not score a run in their half of the ITB what do you do?
