You're the BU. ASA JO fastpitch. Very common situation.

Pitcher sets up with her pivot foot on the front of the plate (say, arch or even the heel at the front edge) so the front of her foot is off the plate. Legal so far.

As she steps forward, she picks up the heel of her pivot foot to push off, but because of the placement of her foot, her actual push off is 3-4 inches in front of the plate in the dirt. No leap, no hop, no skip, just a push off a few inches in front of the plate.

Do you call that?
