I didn't answer the poll since this may be the dumbest question I've seen posted. I do not believe the poster played college baseball as stated in his profile. This sounds like a question from a preteen ball player trying to use his imagination.

If the ball is not received by the player who was in the catcher's box it's not a pitch. If there are runners on base it would be a balk. I have no idea on rules about positioning a player near the hitter to obstruct the hitter's view of the pitch. I don't know of any coaches yet who want their players to get killed.
