Hey, that's good. I have to remember to use trigonometry with the complaining coaches next time!
The rule requires the pitcher's foot to be completely within the length of the rubber.
But it's one of those rules that receives by tradition lax enforcement: ignore it until someone complains, then enforce it equally for both sides for the remainder of the game.
