I mean, if you watch his normal delivery (first 2-3 pitches covered in the video), you see that his left foot acts as essentially a small pivot motion to contact the rubber. However during the illegal delivery, his left foot leave the ground, and leaves contact with the rubber. This is a case of 1) Ump actually calling it correctly, and 2) Nestor doing something wacky, and it backfiring on him because he established his own natural motion earlier in the at bat.

The pitcher may not take a second step toward home plate with either foot or otherwise reset his pivot foot in his delivery of the pitch. If there is a runner, or runners, on base it is a balk under Rule 6.02(a); if the bases are unoccupied it should be treated as an illegal pitch under Rule 6.02(b).

Hey Jomboy you need to check out bottom of the 2nd inning in yesterday's O's game. The ump changed his mind and I have no idea what happened.

Nestor's Funky Pitching

Well... he DID step back with his right foot. Laz gave away his blunder right there. He got the feet mixed up and truly thought this was a step off. Also... why do we not have the pitch clock on the tv overlay? If it was below 8 seconds, it doesn't matter if the batter wasn't looking or ready, he's legally required to be alert and ready by then.

Your right foot is not allowed to step behind the mound prior to pitching

Please do a video on what Laz did last night to the Orioles calling a clear strike as a ball!

Doing stuff like that is practically asking the ump to miss calls. The ump probably isn't ready for the pitch either.

2:08 Ah, the Yankee bias coming into play, Jomboy. You're better than that.

He stepped behind the Rubber mound dohickey; Whatever it is called; and so it LOOKED like he was stepping off. I'd have called shinanigans too! BTW just what IS that rubber pitchers mound thingy called Jomboy?

Im just curious as a non Yankees fan who only watches Nestor when he pitches against my team. Do his antics actually work? Just from my anecdotal evidence he seems to always throw well out of the strike zone when doing it

He does step off

He stepped off

Nestor being Nestor is so Nestor

I would also classify a decent amount of the movement he did as unnaturally for the delivery of the ball and as it is different then every ball he has ever thrown it’s hard to say it’s his natural movement. That part of the rule needs to be enforced a lot more frequently with Nestor on the mound

Nestor Cortez is the definition of "I don't think my stuff is good enough to beat you on its own so I'm going to put of a clown show to upset your timing"

I'm not sure whether or not the rulebook supports Laz's ruling, but I agree with it regardless. What the pitcher did looked illegal. It's not OK to take little hop steps on the mound in order to quick-pitch. If I was home plate umpire, I'd have given him a 2-minute minor penalty for Unsportsmanlike Conduct. 🤔

I still can't believe he's younger than Shohei Ohtani.

Does Jomboy ever do any breakdowns against the Yankees?

update on that astros pitcher that got ejected for a sticky substance

I think the ump is right, but this was really close. This is why Nestor has gotten so good. He messes with the batters so much with his weird delivery and changing speeds. I've gotta say I didn't predict him becoming this good.

Pretty stupid when pitchers try to resort to trickery. Win games because of your skills, not because of your silly antics.
