Was watching a HS game a while, couple years, back and there was a pitcher that had an odd stretch.

He was on the rubber with both feet parallel to the rubber, but pointed in opposite directions. After the sign, he would come set a pitcher normally would from the stretch. Umpires never did anything, look confused though. At the time it looked as illegal as can be but I have never seen anything in the rules that I can really see that would cover such a thing.

Wow, that seems really odd I'm having difficulty picturing that. The only possibility I see is assuming he's a righty having his right foot in contact with the rubber pointing to third and his shoulders square to the plate with his non-pivot foot turned to first. I don't think I'd have anything other than a WFT moment while watching this guy.
