8.01(a)....Windup.... The pitcher shall stand facing the batter, his pivot foot in contact with the pitcher's plate and the other foot free.
8.01(b)....Set....when he stands facing the batter with his pivot foot in contact with, and his other foot in front of the pitcher's plate......
BTW 8.01(b) comment allows no stop with no runners.
What rulebook are you using?
