Cool

Dave,

Under FED, if the pitcher drops the ball after he has (intentionally) engaged the rubber with one or more runners on base, it is a balk. Even if he's just getting his signs.

With no runners on base, if he drops the ball before initiating his delivery, I've got no pitch regardless of where the ball ends up. If during his delivery, ball if it crosses a foul line, no pitch otherwise.

JM
