FED rules say that a pitcher MUST deliver to the batter in a continuous manner after starting ANY motion habitually associated with his delivery.
My question is this. Is the raising of the knee straight up a motion habitually used in a delivery. Im most cases yes. With this being said, why would it be OK for a LHP to raise his knee then throw to first, but not a RHP? No hanging of the knee, just raising and then going to the base.
I like the NCAA rule. However, in FED, how is this different. I know how it is usually called, and that is inconsistently.
Is the bending of a knee part of a delivery, or is the delivery started when you move towards home? The rules are unclear. TOP in the set position is any motion after the set that commits you to throw home. What does that mean?
