Very good, I like that one.

However, remember that in SP, the pivot doesn't even have to be "on" the pitcher's plate, but just in contact with it. I've seen some guys stretch out from the end so far, a RH batter would have to actually turn his body a bit toward 3B just to see the ball from the release.
