I have seen this
I read pretty well, and I do not see where they explain what are the boundaries of the coach is that is pitching other than the pitching line. I assume this line is perpendicular to the front edge of the plate, so can I move closer and farther up and down that line as I choose?
D Pitcher’s Line: A line drawn from the pitcher’s circle to the fair ball arc.
8.07.D.1 The pitching coach must keep one foot on or straddle the pitcher’s line.
8.07.D.2 The pitching coach cannot coach while in the pitching position, either verbally or physically.
8.07.D.3 The pitching coach must position himself as not to be an obstruction to the defensive team
on any possible play once the ball has been hit.
Rule 8.07.D Penalty: If a coach violates this rule before the ball is pitched, first (1st) offense: Warning;
second (2nd) offense: Removal of coach as the pitcher for the remainder of the game.
Rule 8.07.D Additional Penalty: If a coach violates this rule after the ball is pitched, obstruction will be
called.
