When does this go into effect? I see with the LBR it is when the pitcher has control of the ball in the circle if she leaves early she is out for 8.7.T.2. So when does section S apply??
Quote: "S. (Fast pitch only) When the runner fails to keep contact with the base to which the runner is entitled until the ball leaves the pitcher's hand." This seems redundant with T.2 since they are both talking about fast pitch only. Am I missing something??

8:7:S is referring to the runner leaving the base early on a pitch, such as in a steal situation. The runner cannot leave until the ball, in the judgement of the umpire, leaves the pitcher's hand.
8:7:T:2 is one of the criteria of the LBR. In other words, if the pitcher has the ball inside the 8 ft circle and the runner stops at the base, they must stay on that base. If they decide, after stopping and while the ball is in the circle, to try for second, they will be called out.
