That's the strangest pinning call I've ever seen. The drivetrain of the "pinning" robot was perpendicular to the pinned robot for the majority of the count. That was not pinning. Pinning needs to be defined better so that calls like that don't happen. 120 could have turned and drove out of the corner whenever they wanted to find a different shooting position.
