There are no pick-offs in softball, at least, not by a pitcher since the runner isn't supposed to be off the base.

Now, what softball people refer to as a "pick-off" is when the catcher tries to catch a runner off base.

Then again, there are many people in softball who think that the foot isn't suppose to be near the base when executing a "hook slide".
