It has always been a rule & in my entire life of watching & playing baseball I have only seen it enforced at any level one time and in that one time it was very obvious the player was deliberately leaning over the plate. Why college baseball is now doing it is beyond me. You don't a lot of reaction time on a 90 mph fastball. However I cannot count the times I have seen batters lean in on a curveball in order to get the hbp.

It's already been enforced twice against us this season.
