That's what happens when the umpire(s) don't observe what is happening BEFORE putting the ball back into play.

You and your partner screwed up. Call time. Put the runners where they belonged after the balk call. Put the batter back in the box, 3-0. Why compound your goof by letting the offense get an advantage from your mistake?

There is a rule for this situation. It's called the rule of common sense.

"PLAY BALL!!"
