Because in the example from my game it was an intentionally dropped ball.
Rule 6.05 (L) deals specifically with this situation.
In my game, the ump incorrectly called this a double play. The correct ruling should have been batter out, dead ball, runner returns to first.

The word intentional makes this a judgement call for the umpire. I wouldn't count on the call being overturned by league officials.
