When I was in pro school in the stone age...
They taught us just to call the balk and move 'em along. But since I never got a pro job, esp. in HS Baseball I always tell kids what they did.
My call was last night: "THAT"S A BALK (Pointing at F1) TIME! (Hands UP) NO STEP TO 1B (pointing R1 to 2B)."
My partner did nothing, of course, but he is a 2nd year guy who mostly does SB. He did a decent job for a newbie.
