I assume this applies to the case when the pitcher is "making a play" as stated in 8.05d, but why isn't this language repeated in this note? I also assume this would apply more for a left handed pitcher?

1. The OBR contains many editing errors. Yes this pertains to making a play.
2. No differentiation is made between RHP and LHP.
