==Pickoffs== A [[baserunner]] is "[[pickoff|picked off]]" base when that runner takes a [[List of baseball jargon (L)#lead|lead]] off his base and the [[pitcher]] (or [[catcher]]) makes a quick throw to a fielder manning that base, resulting in the runner being [[putout|tagged out]]. In this circumstance, the baserunner is not considered to have been caught stealing. However, if, during the play, the runner made any feint or motion toward the next base, then the runner is caught stealing, even if he is eventually caught trying to re-assume the base which he originally occupied.
