Yes, Rich, unless the poster tell us that the pitcher threw in a manner that resembled his pitching delivery, we ignore 8.05 (g). It doesn't come into play.

Darn guys, all I said was that there
might be a condition when it was a balk. Shouldn't people be aware of that? Or would you rather explain it to some angry coach that read here that it wasn't?
BTW Garth, your simple "Why?" post seems to have blocked follow up posts, at least on my computer.
