pitcher throwing/feinting to unoccupied base...
Did FED change this rule recently to include the wording "or to drive back a runner" or am I confusing rule sets?
Situation:
R1, pitcher comes set. As F1 begins his delivery, R1 breaks toward 2nd. In a continuous motion, F1 steps toward 2nd to make a play on R1. No throw is made to 2nd and R1 retreats back to 1st.
I believe it is rule 8.4 that covers this play, can I get an interp on this?
