You can see in that video the exact width of that pitcher plate and where she is starting on that plate?

Youre pretty good.

All I'm saying is I dont see any conclusive evidence of anything in that video, and from what i can tell in some scratchy 2 second video is a POSSIBLE IP, if so, ever so slight. Its a big big maybe, not callable from that video from what I can see.

Edit to add my "for the record":

The foot must be COMPLETELY outside the 24" PP.. so its nit picky to call based on a possible 1/2" -1" IMO. For one you are guessing nearly 4 inches without reference point, add another 4 inches for the full width of the foot.. so unless a pitchers throws herself WAY outside, you just cant tell and if you are guessing 1/2-1" under those CONDITIONS, you are being nit picky.

The call is NOT makable by that video shipwreck, not with any honest looking at it.
