There is a coach in these parts that teaches something similar to what Kent originally posted. I have seen it on more than one occasion and have called illegal pitch everytime. The way this is "supposed" to work is that the continuing motion of the arm is what the batter is supposed to key on, not the ball that is flying to them. In these cases the reason I gave a call of illegal pitch is because the pitcher continues her arm for one full windmill revolution more after the ball is released.
