balk - toes don't point to the base

So if LHP F1's free foot and entire body heads toward 1st base, you are going to balk him because his toes are not pointing to 1st? I cannot decide which is harder, to picture this move or believe it would be balked.

How can you pick off the guy behind you if your foot has to point in that direction. I'm starting to picture "The Exorcism" but the foot is spinning instead.
