Midweek game last Tuesday, runners on first and second none or one out, dropped third strike, batter heads to first before realising he is out, unintensionally kicks ball away from catcher, runners move up to second and third, manager talks to umpire who says bad luck not intensional. My amatuerish scanning of Rule 7.09 doesn't mention intent, interested in rules experts opinions. Please excuse my ordinary spelling.

My mistake, in my old rule book it was Rule 7.09, it is now 6.01 in the latest edition.

Don't know about bad luck! If intentional then lead runner also out and other runner returns to first base. If accidental then runners should have been returned to first and second.
