After seeing the replay on ESPN, Kline was looking in and getting the signs, started to come set and stopped. It wasn't much of a movement, but if your the umpire watching the pitcher, it was obvious that he started then stopped.
*Edited to add* The movement reminded me of how a lineman would flinch and get called for a false start in football. It doesn't have to be much movement, but if you flinch, it's a penalty, a balk or five yards, depending on the sport.
Of course Mazilli and Kline didn't think there was a balk. What else is new...
