The way calling IP's was explained to me was:

Call what happens first.
hands together when stepping on the pitchers plate
stepping back
stepping forward
not dragging

I am sure there are others.

If they fix the first then don't fix the next then call that.

Here is the issue. There is no prescribed remedy to fix any of them that I can find. The mere described action is an IP. Nowhere does it state the IP is delayed pending possible correction.

I read that differently than you did. Call the first pitch illegal for the first thing that makes it illegal. If on the subsequent pitch, they fix the first thing, call the second thing. Etc.

Okay, I can see it reading that way and agree.
