Coach,
In the sit that was offered, I mentioned that if it was done differently as an example of the F1 trying to gain an advantage. The Fed book and NCAA book mention the non-pivot foot needing to be in line with or behind the front plane of the rubber (in the wind-up position.) If the F1 begins the game with his foot in a slightly ahead position, I am not going to pick a booger and call a ball (as directed.) Now, if he changes his position during the advance of the game TO GAIN AN ADVANTAGE, I may go get a ball or balk as the sit dictates. That was my meaning by if he changes his delivery or set. May not be book, but I don't like to pick boogers if not needed. Your thoughts?

I mention this because I have seen already many Fed and College pitchers using this windup mechanic.

Per Fed rule, if the pitcher starts with his non-pivot foot entirely in front of the pivot foot, he is bound by the rules of the set which includes a complete and discernable stop prior to delivering to the plate. Are you going to ball him if this is his NORMAL wind-up position?
