"The second F3 sees that F1 is going to attempt a pickoff, he immediately gets on one knee and uses the whole bottom half of his leg to cover the entire base."
I belive your trying to justify the call after the fact.
The timing of the throw over to first and the blocking of the base is such a fine line, I have personally found it better to not insert myself into the game at that point, unless 100% sure. Which is very difficult.
As already stated, in an NCAA contest this has been clearly defined and therefore a much easier call to make. In Fed I would stay away from it myself. (Belive me, I learned the hard way.) In OBR, dont even think it.
