I am a lil' confused about the question posed.

If I'm not mistaken, delivery of a pitch must be done in a continuous motion. In throwing to a base, the pitcher must FIRST step toward the base, then throw.

Once the pitcher moves into the set from the stretch, placing his hand and glove together, he must come to a discernable stop and either pitch, step and throw to a base, or step off. Once he comes set and seperates his hands without doing any of the above, it is a balk.

If throwing to a base, a discernable stop is not necessary. But if he pitched without coming set, it is a balk.

Am I on the same page with you here?
