Resetting

[Rolling Hard]

I hope the new rule doesn't lead to more of this. That is obviously crow hopping. Easy call. I am assuming this is college ball. Amazes me that she can get away with it.

You're right. Easy call, but I truly believe many umpires can't see it. I think they're looking at upper body only.

That's where it's headed

Better than where it was at.

Agree to disagree

That's where it's headed

We are headed this way as soon as Pitchers learn how to pitch this way.

Without a doubt that's Ally Carda in a Team USA uniform so it's international competition where leaping is allowed, but no crow hopping. I'm still not convinced that a reset like that is an advantage.

Thankfully there are those that are not concerned about the pitchers feet.
That said,

About The rule sticklers
( AKA those that want to focus on the rules only and their frustration with umpires inconsistency.)
DOES Include the fact that how umpires are umpiring is part of the game.
( it's okay you can be frustrated with it but it's still part of the game)

Now... here it comes...
There is still the game to be played!

Hopefully more people will
realize even IF pitchers Crow Hop
Batters can still hit the ball !!!

Batters timing pitchers

Reality is pitchers all have their unique pitching motion. Which includes driving off the rubber, sometimes back toe in the dirt, sometimes not. Sometimes there's a hole in front of the rubber so they're not going into a pit they're just going across it.
Pitchers of different heights and strengths, that makes a difference to timing because strides and drive distance can be different, arm Circle can be different. And throw different speeds.

Basically batting, timing the pitcher is always different.

So i comment again

FOCUS ON THE BALL AND HIT IT !!!

How many people are willing to take a moment, think it through,
to realize even IF pitchers Crow Hop
Batters can still hit the ball !!!

( even an illegal pitch can be hit)

Well, Focus on the Ball and hit it.... is sound advice but incomplete what about the pitchers. What are the pitchers and pitching coaches thinking when they see a new set of rules from what they have taught? Pitchers can not take the advice "Just Pitch the ball"

Easy answer

That's up to the coaches/pitchers to decide what mechanics they are going to use.
Be happy, The rules have given them more options now ~including leaping, &
start back not long ago.
