PWL,

Yes, his free foot. That is the baseball term for "not his pivot foot." It was self-explanatory.

No, you're reading too much into it. He got on the rubber. He set up with his free (yes, left) foot at the 45 degree line. He then threw to first with no other movement, including no step. That is a balk. The coach argued that it was not a balk. The pitcher did not step toward first base, he merely lined up toward first base. Not the same thing.

Did that help?
