Is there a 45 degree rule in baseball?

 

Yes, there is a 45-degree rule in baseball. Running against a left-handed pitcher is one of the most challenging tasks a baserunner has. There are many aspects to studying left-handed pitchers. Here I will focus on one detail.

 

We know that left-handed pitchers must obey the 45-degree rule. Once a pitcher has pitched to home plate (as determined by his right leg traveling 45 degrees from the line connecting his left leg to first base), he is no longer permitted to throw to first base.

Conservative runners wait until left-handed pitchers commit to the plate. Be wary of exceptions to the rule. If a pitcher’s right leg goes over his left, he’s at home plate. In this case, the runner can usually jump well over the lefty.
