Pick off - runner at first only

Yes to the "inside move" to second on a runner stealing from first.  Most, if not all, Umps HS and up are pretty familiar with this.  I am sure some of the local Umps could verify.

 

I'm mobile, so I'm having difficulty with the link, but we just discussed this. It's about the fifth thread down.

Yeah. I've done it a lot. Coaches go crazy, but the umps understand the rule. the rules also allow for a lefty to come around and continue, WITHOUT A PAUSE, to second base on a stealing runner.

I don't know why this isn't done-- especially in HS where the rules make this move less likely to be a balk (in the event that R1 stops)

 

Scenario:  The opponent's leadoff batter gets on, he's a 6.8 burner, and my pitcher is 1.5 and my catcher is 2.3.....he's 100% going to attempt to steal, and will probably make it unless he stumbles.  There's no downside to try to guess which pitch he's going and do an inside move. 

 

But it's too un-traditional for me to do it.
