mrm,

Just in case you need to "convince" someone, this is what the MLBUM has to say on the question:

Quote:

(b) There is no violation if a pitcher attempts a pick-off at second base and, seeing no fielder covering the bag, throws to the shortstop or second baseman, neither of whom is in the vicinity of the bag nor is making an actual attempt to retire the runner.
