Question
IF HAVE RUNNER ON FIRST AND 3RD AND THE PITCHER PITCHING FRONT HE CAN MOVE THE HEAD TO 1 AND 3
Alfredo,
I am a little confused with the wording of your question but I will answer it the best as I can. If a pitcher is pitching from the stretch position and is set he can look at both runners but has to do it without moving his shoulders. If the shoulders move a balk will be called. If the pitcher is in the full windup the pitcher can see both runners by moving his head.
Hope this answers your question
