The reply I made on the other board is still what I think is correct. Its not in the book now because they deleated it. Now the shift from glove to hand after the foot contacts the pitcher's plate and before the "signal/pause" is a nothing. After the signal/pause and bringing the hands together, she can no longer seperate the hands without pitching, per 6-2-a.
Note that to ignore the shift, it must happen before F1 does anything that could be construed to comply with 6-1-a and 6-1-b. In other words, the shift would have to occur as she took the rubber, or immediately after, and before she looks at F2. As I said before, it keeps you from having to call the illegal pitches in JV and middle school ball where the F1s have not developed good form.
