Rule 8.01(b) The Set Position. Set Position shall be indicated by the pitcher when he stands facing the batter with his pivot foot in contact with, and his other foot in front of, the pitcher’s plate, holding the ball in both hands in front of his body and coming to a complete stop.
All the rule requires is that the free foot be in front of the line of the front edge of the rubber, not directly in front of the rubber.
