Here's the confusion I witnessed. From the top of the arc to about when the hand came around to the hip, the pitchers hand was noticably outside the plane of the elbow...but when the ball was RELEASED the hand and wrist looked in line with, or even inside, the elbow. Does (b) say that AS SOON AS the hand goes below the hip the wrist must be inside the elbow? Or just on release? Thanks again.
Think of it this way: Is the pitcher delivering the ball from the top of the windmill? If the delivery must be from below the hip, does it really make a difference where the ball is prior to the ball getting below the hip?

Can you actually differentiate the 100th of a second it takes from the ball dropping below the hip from the time of the release?
