I don't believe that would count as a pin because you are not restricting movement in all directions. It seems like there is no rule preventing you from blocking a defense as long as they are not already in the middle of going across it. Patrolling the back end of the defense would be a violation because you are now preventing the opposing robot from completely crossing.
