If his pivot foot is NOT parallel to the pitchers plate, he is in the Wind-up Position. If his pivot foot is parallel to the pitchers plate, then he would be in the Set Position.
When assuming the Set Position, the pitcher shall have his pivot foot in contact with or directly in front and parallel to the pitchers plate.
When assuming the Wind-up position, the pitcher has no restrictions as to how his pivot shall be positioned on the pitchers plate.
