The pitcher is not required, by rule, to stretch but if he does, it must be without interruption and in one continuous motion {OBR 8.01(b)}.

I have not seen an interp on this but I believe that if he steps off DURING the stretch he has ENDED the stretch and has fullfilled his obligation to stretch without interruption and in one continuous motion. Makes sense to me. G.
