Changing the penalty to just a ball on the batter works for me. As long as the coaches know that they can expect more IPs called per game.

Changing the pitching rule would be a better option where the leap is concerned. Specifically stating that a pitcher can leap as long as they aren't higher than the top of the pitcher's plate would help. The plate, by rule, is supposed to be flush with the surrounding ground anyway. I think some of the air umpires see below the feet is due to the raised plate. So are the pitchers, the fields, or both violating the rule book?

Personally, I like the ISF rules concerning the feet.
