The knee is irrelevant. If he picks up his non-pivot foot (left for a RHP), and rotates on his pivot (right for RHP) and steps toward 1B he can make a throw. The move with his left foot needs to be continuous, ie pick it up, rotate on pivot and step to first. If his non-pivot foot goes behind the rubber, he must go home with the pitch.
