It's not, you can't fake because then they can't see you release it, they just dive back,, and they dive back for nothing basically, with no risk from the pitcher.
Yes, this is true. if you jump off, like in the video though, it is a balk. once you step off, you can do anything. What is shown in the vid is correct.
Sorry we don't give more but we are offering a 54 minute DVD for $14.95 on our website that has a lot more info including balks. Pitcher pick off moves, holding runners and taking base leads. With so many players at younger levels taking base leads this info is a must for coaches and umpires. Makes the move up much easier.
So what's the website address?

The second one IS legal. He CAN fake a throw to first, IF he steps off the rubber at the same time.
