Had this exact thing happen in a HS game a couple of weeks ago. The pitcher stepped back, but did not clear the rubber, and faked. I balked him and the Def. HC came out of the dugout and starts yelling "He stepped off". I motioned for him to come talk to me and told him that he didnt clear the rubber. He says, "come on, he tried to step back, give us a break". I just told him that the rules dont define a legal pick as "trying" to disengage the rubber if you want to fake to first. He kind of looked at me and said, "OK blue, thanks for the explanation." Didnt hear a peep the rest of the game.
