Can a pitcher in the pre set stretch position run directly towards a runner trying to steal without first disengaging from the rubber?

Yes as long as he doesn't lift his leg and motion it towards home plate.

What does pitching out of the stretch mean?
When runners are on base, pitchers generally tend to pitch out of the stretch, meaning that they shorten the time it takes to prepare and throw a pitch. This is done to prevent base runners from stealing base. When there are no runners on base, pitchers tend to pitch out of the wind up.
Definition of a spring force?
Spring force is the restoring force exerted by a compressed or stretched spring when it is displaced from its equilibrium position. It is directly proportional to the amount of stretch or compression applied to the spring. This force aims to return the spring to its original position.
What law states that the force on a spring is directly proportional to the stretch of the spring?
Hooke's Law states that the force required to stretch or compress a spring is directly proportional to the displacement of the spring from its equilibrium position.
If a pitcher starts from stretch and comes to the set position runner steals second base and touches it pitcher delivers pitch and it's fouled off does runner go back to first base?
Yes, the runner would go back to 1st base if the batter fouls off the pitch.
The movements a pitcher makes before releasing a ball?
Vague question. It could be anything from the wind-up to the stretch position depending if anyone is on base or not. Movements before the pitch could be telling the catcher yes or no about a particular sign.
Who and when was the first pitcher pitching from the stretch as opposed to the windup and when did it become mainstream in the big leagues?

How long should you hold a stretch position to make improvements?
there are multiple debates on this. my thoughts are that you stretch the muscle before an athletic event for 30 seconds
When pitcher tosses baseball to?
The physical action of throwing a baseball to a batter is known as "Pitching." The act of pitching, throwing the ball to the batter, is regulated by many rules dependent on the situation. For instance, there are 2 types of windups, the "Stretch" and the "Full Windup" which starting pitchers will use both types depending if runners are on base and which base they occuppy, but "relief pitchers" will normally use the stretch position regardless of the situation.
How do you stop your arm muscle from jumping?
Stretch it gently and hold the position, repeat as often as needed.
What energy is used when you stretch a spring?
When you stretch a spring, the energy stored is potential energy from the work done to stretch the spring. This potential energy is then converted into kinetic energy when the spring is released and returns to its original position.

What happens when you stretch a spring?
When you stretch a spring, it stores potential energy in the form of elastic potential energy. The spring will exert a restoring force trying to return to its original shape. The amount of force required to stretch the spring is directly proportional to the amount of deformation.
