Interesting, gotta give you that one, it clearly says "being picked off base" without necessarily being out.

That certainly opens up the interpretation role of the Official Scorer. Was the runner going anyway and the pitcher didn't know other than to be attempting a pick-off? Or does the runner have to make a move back to the bag before taking off?

I have scored it as either an Attempted PickOff or a Stolen Base. Likewise if he is out at the base he is trying to steal, I have considered it a Caught Stealing.

Not that they are necessarily right, but this is the way the folks at Gamechanger offer the options too.
