Fingering for note D ( fourth line of Pentagram) used by Jeff Siegfried.....?

Hello fellow Sax Players :
when watching a video on YouTube where Jeff Siegfried is playing OBLIVION composed by Astor Piazzola, I noted that he uses a different fingering to play the note D.
Please, see the video , here:
If you pay attention , at 0:33 seconds he uses his left little finger to press the key that is used to play low B....
I was looking at different fingering charts ( Soprano Sax ) and I could not find that alternate fingering ....
Any explanation ?
Many thanks in advance

He’s probably using palm D to play that D and, as you added, using the low B for pitch. It would bring it down a little.
