Legal play or Illegal
hello all
this weekend we will be having a aau state tournament here in virgina, i just need a clarification if this play is leagl or not. runners are on 1st and 2nd the pitcher steps off the mound and pretends like he has over thrown the ball into the outfield and starts yelling at his fielders to get the ball. correct me if im wrong is this along the lines of verbal interference and whats the penalty. just trying to understand this play a little better and remember these are 11 year olds we are umpiring.
thank you
