I doubt it was distracting to his batters or somebody other than the coach may have said something about it. So long as his non-pivot foot is ON or behind the front egde of the rubber (or a line extended left or right from the rubber), the pitcher is just fine. He may have had his non-pivot foot in front of his pivot foot and still have been legal since there I'm not aware of any rule stating where his pivot foot has to be when he begins the wind-up (so long as it doesn't look like the set position).
