Thanks!

I never accepted any "myths" about the game of baseball. This is not a myth, it's physics. In order to perform the move you describe,

I'm sorry I described no move, you must be confused.

his interpretation of one of many possible moves> the pitcher would have to feign to 3rd, drag his pivot foot on the ground as he spins around to throw to 1st, and I've NEVER ONCE seen a pitcher do this. They 100% of the time lift their pivot foot off the rubber when turning to throw to 1st. I will let you know the VERY FIRST TIME I see someone stay in total contact with the rubber on this move.

Thanks, no need; I doubt you will ever see that move since if in 25 years you have yet to. I have seen it several times.

So you don't mind if I do not hold my breath or anxiously await your notification.
