I disagree.. you see umpires are figuring out ways to take one step, timed perfectly, so they can do all of their jobs and still comply with "walking the line".

Do you wander around in B or C before the pitch?

If its so important to be walking every pitch, then it should apply in B and C as well.. or its nonsense.
