Steve answered your question........
But on a side note......when I am PU......many times when I call an illegal pitch (i.e. - verbally say "that's illegal" and stand up and give the DDB signal) the pitcher will stop her motion......
In that case.........just award a ball to the batter and advance any runners on base.......
The reason an illegal pitch is a delayed dead ball.....is.......what if the pitcher makes an illegal pitch and the batter smacks a "Home Run"......we do not want to penalize the offense for a mistake by the defense........
