Any step backward shall begin before the hands come together. The step backward may end before or after the hands come together.
NOTE: "Toward" is interpreted as within or partially within the 24-inch length of the pitcher's plate. (See "Figure")
In addition, the referenced "Figure" shows that the stride foot landing outside the 24" width is illegal.

I saw that, but that shows the NP foot outside to start. So how you interpret that if her heel hits the rubber width line toward the catcher she would be legal then correct? As long as she starts with NP inside the rubber's width.
