Re: Balk/No Balk in Padres Game 7-20

Saw this on ESPN this morning, and could not believe it.
The Padres pitcher was in the windup position with a runner on third. R3 feinted the steal of home. SD RH pitcher steps off with his pivot foot first and throws home in an attempt to retire the runner. R3 did not go, but retreated to third. Umps call a balk and send the runner home. Good call, right?

I don't think so. Sounds like he disengaged properly. What am I missing?
