Somewhere USA has a case play stating if the IP is what caused the runner to leave the base before the release of the pitch, then the leaving early is ignored. NFHS on the other hand has stated that it is the runners responsibility to maintain contact with the base until the release of the pitch.
I have a problem with NFHS's statement in that a pitcher can intentionally not release the ball to cause the runner to leave before the release of the ball and the defense gets rewarded with an out for only the cost of a ball to the batter. |
