Any player with the stones to lean into a Beckett, Santana, Webb, or Halladay heater, can take whatever he can get. Technically, yes, its a rules violation, but its always been part of the game. And a good thing too, as far as I'm concerned.

Excellent addition to the list, but I don't consider it cheating. . .just 'gamesmanship'

If you are okay with getting pinged, lean away.

It's cheating in the sense that you're supposed to make an attempt to avoid a ball thrown at you. Some players dont do this and some go so far as to lean into the strike zone hoping to get hit. That's not right.
