Hmmm,
Following jicecone's lead I have passed on e-mails to several FED notables.
We know that the rule is referenced THREE times as to the fact that the speed of the shoulders has NO BEARING on the look.
jicecone's state rules interpretor is a noted college umpire. He is NOT however on the National Committee.
We know the case book says the move is legal. We know that the test says it is legal. And we know that the NFHS website "2005 Rules Interpretations" clearly shows it is legal.
Please do not attack jicecone -- he is simply the messenger.
MY STATE INTERPRETOR told us that players had to stay in the dugout after an "over-the-fence" home run.
Just because people are "State Interpretors" it does not make them correct.
He11, last year our same interpretor told GarthB that a pitcher could pick-off from the wind-up position in FED.
Trust me, the shoulder term as written for THIS YEAR is not a missprint.
