Another detail of the "step off" that confuses me is the "drop the hands to the sides." I see alot of 14 year old games. Many of the pitchers step back and then snap a throw to first while set or while coming to the set position. With the hands in front at or above the belt they break their hands and throw to first. They do not "drop their hands to their sides." If they did, the step off move would be virtually useless as the delay would allow the runner to return easily. Yet I never see this called as a balk. What am I missing?
