For once, FED rules make more sense! A balk creates an immediate dead ball, so you never have to worry about a following action.

Thanks, Rick, for giving a logical explanation. A lot of "would haves/could haves/should haves" if we don't follow your logic. As an example, suppose F2 fired down to 2nd base after the balk, and F4 tagged R1. Then the B/R is appealed for BOT? Why, using Warren's logic, would R1 be entitled to return to 1st?

I like Rick's reasoning.
