Can somebody please post a case play/rule for FED that discusses the call for the following situation...

Pitcher in a legal set position. R1 breaks early for 2B...in one motion, pitcher jump turns and throws to 2B. R1 gets in rundown and is tagged out.

If we have a balk here, obviously the rundown does not occur since the balk stops everything. I'm looking for other thought on this call though

How do you rule? Balk? If so, why? If not, why?

Thanks
Pitcher can jump turn to 2B to make a play on advancing runner. No balk.

6.1.3 Sit F is close as I can come to case play.;
