In OBR and NCAA he does have to disengage after his fake to third. He does have to disengage.

Not looking for an argument here, just clarification. 8.05c explains this move exactly. In stepping, F1 will naturally step off the rubber in order to turn, step, and throw. I know if he wheels in place it's a balk. My "vision" of disengaging is "proper" disengaging (stepping off the back of the rubber). Are you saying F1 has to properly disengage? I understand he just has to break contact with the rubber in order to fulfill the requirement. Did not mean to mislead anyone.
I don't have the MLB manual Bob has for further info.
My comment about a Myth is that a growing number of coaches are insisting that F1 cannot throw over to 1B directly from the rubber
without (properly) disengaging. I hope I'm not missing something here. [/B]

Just a mis-communication. We (now) seem to agree.
