The pitcher though was about 3-4 inches away from the rubber. I wouldn't complain if he was slightly off, but that far I thought I had to at least ask.
This becomes an issue of practicality. Often, over time, the depression that pitchers create in front of the rubber "inches" forward as dirt begins to collect between the shoe and the mound. As long as they are making contact with the back of the depression and they haven't attempted to move the depression farther forward, I give them credit for contact with the rubber.
