Both happened today, FED rules.
Sit #1, RHP in set position, runner on 2nd breaks for 3rd pitcher steps toward third and throws runner out. Coaches say balk, threw to unoccupied base.

Sit #2, RHP in set possition runer on 3rd and 1st. Picher steps toward 3rd and fakes throw, runner on 1st breaks for 2nd, pitcher turns steps towarwd 1st and starts to throw, seeing runner going to 2nd he throws to 2nd in time to retire runner.

Whats your call?
I did in #1, runner out, threw to 3rd to retire runner.
In #2 balk, he steped towad 1st must throw.
Both calls went against the same team. A very good team from Hoffman Estates, IL.
