Now, what softball people refer to as a "pick-off" is when the catcher tries to catch a runner off base.
Then again, there are many people in softball who think that the foot isn't suppose to be near the base when executing a "hook slide". |
Nice semantically "correct" answer. Care to answer the real question? Is an IP a legitimate move by the pitcher to get a runner out?
