If its that close as Bob describes it, I'm not calling a balk. Certainly its a "technical" balk, but as Carl used to say, "don't go looking for boogers."

No coach is going to ever complain because they've been seeing guys do it for years.

Its going to seem as one motion and that's fine with me. Same on the move to third base with pitcher from the windup. If its so close, no balk. Now if its obvious that he separated way before the step, probably a balk.
