great vid but most blues wont tollerate this like for me in one game i did this for all my pick off moves couple games later i got a balk for doing the same moves soo if this is a balk or not is up to the blue guys so just be carefull.
@slicknick230 Wrong. Try again. If there is no one on base, it's not a balk--there are no runners to advance. If you are a jackass, and repeatedly stop your windup, you may get ejected--but there is no balk. Anybody who knows anything about baseball knows this.
can advise please if the movement of the pitcher whether a balk or not... The pitcher is in wind position, stepping his throwing foot on the pitchers plate and eventually throw the ball towards the first base where there's a runner without disengaging his foot. Is it balk? on not?
@Bcurl27 ...that's obviously not true. If there is no one on base there is no such thing as a balk. If there's no one on base you can stop your wind up whenever you want.
The only time a ball "may" be called is if the pitcher pitches while off the rubber. This is an obscure rule that nobody knows unless they actually look it up. I have NEVER seen this called, and I don't believe anyone who says they have. Anybody who has played any kind of meaningful baseball knows that, when there is no one on base, there is no "balk." You can stop your wind up dead with no penalty. This is common knowledge.

Something I keep realizing when you pick-off ; you bring your right foot not to the back of the mound but to the side. Wouldn't that be a balk?

@msy626 whenever you are in the windup, you must throw the ball to home or else you will be called for a baulk.

@cah1289 actually there is a bawk, it counts as a ball for the batter

And also, it's "balk", not "bawk."

@Bcurl27
Wrong. From the windup you can: (1) deliver the ball to the batter, or
(2) step and throw to a base in an attempt to pick-off a runner, or:
(3) disengage the rubber (if he does he must drop his hand to his sides). (OBR 8.01a)
You can pick off from windup even without disengaging from the rubber. AFHS rules do not allow #2 however
