FED pivot foot position outside bounds of plate

[Tog Gee]

From set position, is it now legal in FED for the pivot foot to be outside the bounds of the plate? Image below from umpire Bible illustrates the positioning I am wondering about. (Perhaps outdated)

Legal since 2019.

Thank you.

As long as a portion of the foot is in front of the plate, its all good. If the whole foot is outside the bounds of the plate, then they are illegal.

Foot or shoe?  I can swear some parents are expecting a growth spurt in the near future.

If you can "see" his foot is smaller than his shoe...you need to re-think your priorities in life because your "skills" are being wasted on the baseball field umpiring...🙃
