I have coaches "test" me on that type of move all the time...one where the pitcher steps off the rubber with his pivot foot and then make a pitching motion. They're reason is the same: "He stepped off with his pivot foot!" I correct them stating they cannot make any motions associated with the pitch. Unfortunately, there are umpires out there who let them get away with this move, and that makes it hard for the ones of us who actually know the rule.
