When Brad Rumble was in charge of the book he rules in the 1996 Spring News Letter that this was a balk.
(Same newsletter also noted that if a pitcher pitches out of the set postion "even with no one on base" it is a balk if he does not make a clear and noticable stop when pitching.)
I just wanted to note this as a "side bar" in that many umpires work so many rules books (true, two rule books withendless "adapatations") that maybe the umpire was confused as to the "governorship" of his rules.

How does F1 balk with no one on base?
