lol thanks but I don't need any rules seminars.... Trust me.

Protocol has nothing to do with it. Your comment directed at me didn't seem to be in response to my comment. That's all.

An arm FAKE is indeed a fake. But yay for arguing semantics!

ha I'm with you... This isn't new shit. All these experts so sure that they are right make me laugh.

A RH can legally fake to 3rd under the current MLB rules also.... Assuming he steps off the rubber first.

Not sure why you're responding to me, but it certainly is a form of the hidden ball trick. Plenty of different ways to do it (my favorite is SS or 2B immediately after a double with an aggressive runner), and the fake pickoff play is absolutely one of them.

Gotcha. Some states have adopted it at the HS level, some haven't (mine included).

C'mon fella, no need to be a dick. You're clearly wrong... And it's clear you didn't play or coach the game at a relatively high level. Washed up juco dropout pitchers know this shit.

His right leg bends because he did a jump spin move. Bending of the legs is a necessary part of jumping. There are 3 legal moves to second base... (None of which require the pitcher to throw)... An inside move (or spaghetti move to annoying people) where the pitcher brings his lead leg back over the rubber, a step

that move is no longer allowed in mlb

Disagree. He used a jump spin where both feet moved at the same time. I think you would be able to see it better from a different angle.

You're wrong. A pitcher never is required to throw to second.... whether he uses an inside move, a step off move (disengage the rubber), or a jump spin move.

hey Samer stop embarrassing yourself by not knowing the rules of the game.

doesn't matter if he takes foot off or not.

yay for someone who knows wtf he's talking about.

a pitcher is NEVER required to throw the ball to 2nd on a step off move, inside move (spaghetti), or jump spin move

you're both wrong, neither requires a throw.

You're wrong.

It is completely legal.

He doesn't have to take his foot off the rubber to pick to second.
