Hmmm

OBR 8.01a The Windup Position.

If a pitcher holds the ball with both hands in front of his body, with his entire pivot foot on or in front of and touching but not off the end of the pitcher's plate, and his other foot free, he will be considered in a windup position. From this position he may: (1) deliver the ball to the batter, or (2) step and throw to a base in an attempt to pick off a runner.

The rule also states: He shall not raise either foot from the ground, except that in his actual delivery of the ball to the batter.
