She never officially called it an illegal pitch because we were playing "league" ball but she made the pitcher change her pitching style so that she started the pitch with her arms extended straight out in front of her instead of resting by her side. I thought the pitch didn't start until the hands were together and then separated. This messed with my pitchers mind with trying to change something she had perfected over the past 5 years. The pitcher has had 3 different pitching coaches and she has NEVER been called on an illegal pitch during tournament ball yet.
