Text | [reporting on the AA meeting, rules revisions] The rule requiring pitchers to keep the arm below the hip was modified, and the twirler will hereafter be permitted to throw from the shoulder, but not about it. … The old foul balk was eradicated and a new style adopted. Now, if a pitcher gets his arm higher than his shoulder and the umpire calls a balk, the man at the bat and those on the bases are advanced a base. |
