Pitch both right-handed and left-handed to the same batter during a plate appearance (ambidextrous-pitcher rule).

PENALTY—If a pitcher changes pitching hands during a batter’s time at bat, the umpire shall:

1) Call a balk if a runner(s) is on base;

2) Call a ball for an illegal pitch if no runner(s) is on base;

3) Warn the pitcher; or

4) Eject the pitcher if the offense is repeated.

Note 1: When facing a switch hitter, an ambidextrous pitcher shall declare the hand with which to pitch to the hitter.

Note 2: If a pinch hitter replaces a batter during a turn at bat, the pitcher may change pitching hands.
