Thank you both for your reply and the FED reference.
The BU called this a balk - AFTER the pitcher put his hand behind his back, not when the arm was hanging in front.
The PU argued it was not a balk. I didn't hear the conversation because I was not on the field, but the BU won the discussion and the balk was called by the BU.
