Moving a marginal pitch is not framing. Pulling a marginal pitch is taking a pitch the catcher believes to be a ball and trying to trick the umpire into making it a strike.
Another thing it is trying to do is get the crowd and coaching staff to go against the umpire by showing the umpire up. It doesnt work with proper umpire mechanics... which would including various methods of telling a catcher to stop doing it. ... because we are going to see her move the glove after she believes the pitch is a ball. I wrote an article on this issues and others for a softball mag site and reprinted it as a post here HeyBucket.com - View topic - Sell it to that Umpire!
