FYI- Look at 6.1.2 "With his feet in the windup position, the pitcher may only deliver a pitch or step backward of the pitcher's plate with his pivot foot first."
I suppose that this is the the reason you got it wrong, he cant pick off a runner while in contact. You know the correct ruling, but missed the question. No sweat.
