If you walk to setup double play you could theoretically pick off the lead runner first on a ground ball. You could also get the middle runner out but that opens up an opportunity for a sac fly if you don't turn the double plsy. I just wouldn't want the other team to get s shot at scoring a run without a hit. If they get a hit then whatever.

Teams do a variation of this all the time in extra innings anyway when a team gets 2 on no out..they'll walk them loaded to get the force at home and then turn a double plsy. Seem to remember that working for the Orioles recently.
