Situation: Sophomore level HS game. Runner on 1st and a Right handed pitcher on the mound. Pitcher is in a legal set position. Pitcher lifts his left (non pivot) leg to start his delivery. He then kicks this foot back toward first and wheels and throws there. I call a balk and the players and coach argue saying the pickoff was a 'Johhny G' pickoff move and thus legal. I have been umping only 3 years but I have played for 20 and have never seen nor heard of such a legal pickoff at any level. Is this something I just don't know? Am I being messed with? Help me out.
