Has this changed? (I don't have a rule book newer than 2009 with me at the moment). Certainly seems to me like the "crow-drag" is illegal. ASA does explicitly require that the pitcher actually push off from the point of replanting; i.e. merely replanting is not in and of itself illegal in ASA.
My understanding is what the NCAA is concerned as a replant doesn't not pertain to ASA. It was a discussion with one of the pictures. That's why I'm asking Mike to verify for me, or maybe the 3.2% had gotten to me.

Well, that's why some of Region 3 had a different drink of choice until the "toast to end all toasts" happened. Some people you just can't take out of a small Eastern seaboard state.

What is the call if:
The pitcher crow-hops and THEN also leaps landing outside the 24" plate all on the same pitch?






(Don't worry, I know the answer.)

The count goes to 3-0 and the runner on first scores?
