NWO Ump

Thanks guys for the responses. My thought also was that it was lega, but as Maven said (and was correct), it was a little awkward. So that's why I was asking.

Was doing some pre-season work with local HS team tonight. Had a pitcher throwing from the windup in which he would not move his non-pivot foot. Instead, with both feet on the rubber, his first move would be lifting his pivot foot and placing it parallel to the rubber and continuing his motion. I'm trying determine if this is legal.
