How can you watch the pitcher and the runner leaving early? Are they both your responsibility? How can you see both happening? Come on blue, get in the game! 
NOTE: For those of you who don't know, I was the PU in this game.
BTW: IP is a delayed dead ball...let play happen. Leaving early is immediate dead ball. My question in a scenario:
IP called by 1BU for breaking contact with pitching plate..stepping forward, let's say. Runner leaves before pitch is released. What takes precident...the illegal act by the offense or the illegal act by the defense.

Can it be rationalized that the first action caused the second ?
Then we can penalize the former.
