Are you a lefty?
If so, you could say a 3 pin is a light pocket hit, though I don't count anything that isn't solid enough to take the 2 pin (I'm a righty) "pocket".
If you are a righty, you didn't leave a pocket 3 pin. If you hit the pocket, the head pin takes the 2, the 2 takes the 4, the ball takes the 3, the 3 takes the 6. You could argue the 4/6 with me in some instances, because I've left tight pocket 4 pins...a lot.
But a pocket 3 pin? No such thing for a righty. Your ball didn't even take out what it was supposed to, you can't call that pocket.
