The distinction is, one pitches from the stretch or set positions, and one must come to a complete stop ( come set) prior to pitching from the set position.

After coming set, a pitcher is allowed to momentarily adjust the ball in his glove, however what was described here is a balk, providing the pitcher had come set.
