Geronimo move - no.

Jelly move - yes.

Those are two great descriptions.

When I played 22-25 years ago, it was easy to tell who the pitcher was before he went to warm-up. He had a attachment to his shoe so it would not wear out. In 3 years, we only ran into one pitcher who was illegal. All others pushed and dragged. And I mean dragged. This example is a limited sample but I was not playing rec ball games. It was mostly A level tourneys with one Major tournament a year.

That enforcement of push and drag is easy to enforce. Did it drag? If as much as an iota of air, Geronimo Leap, illegal. After a year of enforcing this, the problem will disappear IMO.

What is the hold up?
