Announcers said definitely a balk. I’ve never been good at seeing/calling balks.


it was an obvious balk. you are not alone because balks can be confusing because there are so many ways to commit one. their pitcher made an obvious move toward the plate before changing direction and firing to first. easiest kind of balk to call and those umps just blew the call. if not for the balk rules stealing a base would be damn near impossible.

Correct all around. I was watching and did not see it. Replay made it obvious.
