Here's another beaut from a coach in Iowa:
Modify:...The pitcher shall pitch...the pitcher's plate. The pitching regulations begin when he intentionally contacts the pitcher's plate. He shall use the same pitching sequence/mechanic for every pitch to insure that the pitching motion is consistent. The pitching requirements...but not both.
Rationale: By the pitcher changing his motion to give the appearance of a quick pitch during critical stages of the game is an illegal deception. He would be allowed to throw overhand and then throw side-arm but the initial pitching motion should be identical.
