I've seen this in print, but I'm having trouble finding where it is in the rules. Anybody with a citation?

Welcome back Steve!

The answer to your question is that it's not there. But it's not prohibited.

Oh, in the Calvin Ball, er, NFHS rules. Gotcha! I knew I had seen it someplace.

Does that make the pitcher a "two-pump chump?"

More than two pumps: NCAA 7-5-b Penalty "Ball" with bases unoccupied. 8-3-k "Balk" with runners on base.

Thanks for the information. I actually looked up old footage of the old time pitchers and saw that they had a similar motion. However, I couldn't find any recent examples so wasn't sure on the rule. Thanks again.

I'm getting old and suffer from ICRS, that said, there was a pitcher a few years ago that used the double pump motion. It may look stange, but legal in all codes.

Yes. FED Rule book since the OP specified NFHS rules.

I think you will find the information about the double pump in the case book. Don't remember for sure. I don't remember it being spelled out in the FED rule book.

From 6-1-2 of the Rules Book: "...He is limited to not more than two pumps or rotations..."
