Question Is there a point that is too far? Balk?

Runner on first base. Left hand pitcher picks right leg up, doesn't cross over the rubber with it then throws to first. His right foot plants somewhere closer to the direction of home base than towards first base. Close enough towards home that some lefthanders that throw across their body might pitch like that.

This reminds me a little of the Andy Pettite move and seems left completely a judgement call.

Balk, or no balk?
