Unless the pitcher made that same hanging motion of his leg as part of his natural delivery (3 sec), and even that is questionable depending on wether the leg comes to another stop and is not a continous motion. I believe a balk would be in order. Lefties can definitely get away with a lot more on their move to first however, 3 sec of the hanging leg is pushing the envelope.
