Mike,

I had two last year similar to the UCLA incident. R2 on
3B in an ITB game walks off to draw a line as to how far
she wants to run up after the pitch. The other was, R1
on 1B back off the orange base to take her running start.

The team that won the Texas 3A state championship had a
coach very similar to the one TexBlue mentioned. Try it
until Blue calls it. He too believed to push every thing
from leaving early, illegal pitch and being well out of the
batters box until it was called.

I realize sometimes we see something and think, "No, she did
not leave that early!" If they do it once, normally it will
happend again.
