She's leaping, but the question is, is she replanting her pivot foot? The emphasis may have changed since I had to hang up the mask, but back then we were more concerned with pitchers who were replanting a second time and pitching from 35 feet instead of 43 (or 40 in HS).
@@sethtyler2778 I agree. Personally, I would not consider this an illegal pitch. Many uninformed people will say she is "leaping". That terminology went out of fashion (at least among umpires) 20 or more years ago. As I said, the question is whether or not she is pushing off from a second spot. In my opinion, she is not.
Yes she is. She’s actually replanting from the ball of her foot but with the architecture of the cleat. It allows her to be on the very point when she throws with cleats on.
For those of you who are not umpires,but seem to know EVERYTHING. Umpires will hesitate to call that a leap, because her trail foot toe is pointed down. As the game progresses, there is a little recess, where pitchers drag the trail foot. We understand this . The umpires that work the Oklahoma games are supposed to be the best in the country. Its only illegal if its called illegal. Starting in 2023, leaping will be allowed .
This is no fault of Jordy Bahl’s, but showing us the same pitch to the same batter over and over and over again is not interesting at all. Figure out how to do an interesting video next time.
To call this pitch illegal by saying that her right foot is coming off the ground is not illegal with today’s rules. When her left foot touches the ground before she releases the ball, that also does not make it illegal! I’ve never seen a right handed pitcher release a ball before her left foot touches the ground! The thing that would cause this pitch to be illegal, would be at the point where her right foot touches the ground in front of the rubber; but in my mind, it is not illegal, because she is not getting an extra push off the ground with the ball of that foot at that point! I believe if you have the background of truly understanding pitching rules, you will understand and agree with what I just said!
Something is a little “off” this season. She isn’t throwing with the same velocity and energy that she did last year. She appears to have lost some weight and of course the injury might still be bothering her.
Because it's not illegal pretty sure if it was Patty wouldn't have her out there. Most people who say it's illegal probably got their team shut down by her so it's the best thing they can come up with
@@mylesmarkson1686 it’s only a hop when you replant. Her foot comes off the ground for a second, but she is not re pushing. Go read the actual term for crow hop.
She is good, but her pitches are illegal. Notice how her right foot comes off the ground and her left foot touches the ground before she releases the ball. It's ok if she drags the right foot. It's a shame no umpires call, "Illegal pitch."
@@RubenMartinez-cl2sh She sure does, and then her front-foot plants shortly after. It's no wonder she's having so much success. She's half-way to home-plate before she lets the ball go!

Jordy. Thank you for the 2 Championships you helped bring to OU. You're the best! ❤🎉❤
She is fine! The team as a whole is smooth with it
The audio ruins EVERYTHING, mes amis...including my evening.
Better without the noise in the background
Same as my 9yr old Gbaby..it’s awesome!
Style not speed btw!

Her heel is facing up on her finish. Hard to plant with the top of your foot

Thank you for knowing the correct definition of a crow hop. A lot of mis informed people assume she’s hoping when she’s not.
rules have changed for sure to give and edge to the pitchers

Jordy Bahl is a BEAST!

Would be called Illegal in NZ & Aus
@@stevekoroheke9506And? Those countries also have gun bans😂
We also have no school massacres and our gun crimes are minimal@@rebelp311

Absolute Stud!!
100%
great legs
That is why beginning thus year from College down to H.S. pitchers can now leap
Is she throwing a screw or Rise?

Ask Stanford. They might give some insight.
Well this was really wrong
Do you see the stands during OU softball events? Plenty of men there. Way more exciting than baseball.
If it’s illegal why isn’t it being called?
Because it's not illegal pretty sure if it was Patty wouldn't have her out there. Most people who say it's illegal probably got their team shut down by her so it's the best thing they can come up with
Monica has been illegal her entire career. Never saw it called.
@@bradleycarroll8187 I agree with you 100%. I’m being completely sarcastic. The complaints people have are just sour grapes.
Because it isn't illegal. People just tend to talk out of their asses a lot.. It's the way of the world these days.
It’s not illegal, it’s just good!
It is also an illegal pitch. She is leaping. This video shows she is air born .
I'd love for just ONE umpire to get the guts to call her out on it.
Not illegal! Read the rule book
@@EricTheGreat508 Yep, the rule book says you can't leap and then re-plant. That's Jordy's bread-and-butter!
@@mylesmarkson1686 it’s only a hop when you replant. Her foot comes off the ground for a second, but she is not re pushing. Go read the actual term for crow hop.
@@EricTheGreat508 She definitely re-plants. BOTH feet come all the way down BEFORE she lets go of the ball. Go read your rule book FOR ONCE!
She is good, but her pitches are illegal. Notice how her right foot comes off the ground and her left foot touches the ground before she releases the ball. It's ok if she drags the right foot. It's a shame no umpires call, "Illegal pitch."
I noticed that as well. Good catch. Slowmo certainly reveals that her right toe is briefly off the ground before she plants her left foot.
It's not a illegal pitch no more since 2022 It is o k to leave the ground now you just can't crow up
@@briansummey1506 Who told you that Brian. Rules haven't changed........ College, you just don't have to have both feet on the rubber...
@@briansummey1506 What is crow hopping compared to what she is doing? Just asking because my daughter is a pitcher. Thanks
Leap is when foot comes off the ground. Crow hop is a landing another repush
The crow hopping
No she isn't
She's leaping everytime she throws.....
...sure is!!! Illegal pitches!!!
Yep, and then she replants with BOTH feet before letting the ball go. If this ain't illegal, I'd like to know what is!
@Myles Markson u replant on your toes??
@@RubenMartinez-cl2sh She sure does, and then her front-foot plants shortly after. It's no wonder she's having so much success. She's half-way to home-plate before she lets the ball go!
@@mylesmarkson1686 negative ghost rider. You might wana learn the rules a little more. 100% legal. Are you an angry texass fan?
It is illegal pitch hands and ball are still in the glove mid jump and both feet are off the ground that is a Crow hop
Toe stays in contact with the dirt. Judgement call.
No it doesn't. It clearly comes off the ground, and then she replants right before she lets go. It's illegal, and it's no wonder she is so successful.
It’s not an illegal pitch. Read the rule book.
Who said it's a illegal pitch ? You read the rule book @@EricTheGreat508

She’s crow hopping
Ah yes all woman no Trans!
Same pitch for 2 minutes?? Lame. Ban this dude.
You mean ban Jordy Bahl. Her cheating is ruining the entire sport, as it won't be long before everybody stars emulating her.
No ja
She is built like she could change uniforms and fall right in with the gymnastics gals. 100% athlete.
100% illegal. But almost all of them pitch illegally these days.
