| Once the illegal pitch is called isn't the ball dead at that point ? Or does the offensive coach get to choose if he wants the pitch or the play?

| Hi henry, An Illegal Pitch is not a dead ball. It is a delayed dead ball and still live. When the ball hits the batter then it is a dead ball. Awards start at that point. Batter would get 1st base for being hit by pitch and runner would get 3rd for the illefal pitch.
