Pinning rules

In the following situation would your robot be "pinning" the other robot?

Let's assume that you're facing the opposing robot and the robot is 1 foot from the side of the field and is 1 foot from the front of your robot. The opposing robot robot is facing towards its goal at one end of the field. (Therefore the opposing robot could easily escape the pin just by driving either forwards or backwards).

The only rule I could find talking about pinning is <G31>:

"An ALLIANCE may not pin an opponent ROBOT for more than five (5) seconds. A ROBOT will be considered pinned until the ROBOTS have separated by at least six (6) ft. The pinning ROBOT(S) must then wait for at least three (3) seconds before attempting to pin the same ROBOT again. Pinning is transitory through other objects. "

Thanks!
