[QUOTE=Lapopez;861063]All right, I'll help you SA...
Also, in the fake to third base, the pitcher must break contact with the rubber before throwing to first base.
-------
In the earlier thread, the jab step was used to break contact with the rubber, though it was not considered a jab step after the legal feint to third base. The pitcher who is standing over the rubber from 3rd to 1st base is considered a fielder.

I would like to see the NCAA and Fed adopt the 2013 MLB ruling asap.

In the later thread, the jump turn was used to break contact with the rubber and it was still considered a jump turn even though it was made behind the rubber. The pitcher who is standing over the rubber from 3rd to 1st base is NOT considered a fielder.

I would like the pitcher to return to the classic jump turn, and penalize him two bases for trying to step off at the same time he is trying to pick off a runner on 1st base.
