We all know know that (at least in USA that I know) is that a pitcher can leap, which is good for us umpires, but I wonder how much this rule is gonna be enforce:

Rule 6C, Section 3J: The pitcher has 5 seconds to release the next pitch after receiving the ball or after the umpire indicates “play ball”.

Comment: Reduces the time to release a pitch from 10 to 5 seconds.
