I agree w/ Ump25...this will be the best way to deal with it...I worked a HS game this past Thurs and the pitcher was committing a balk by the letter of the rule, but in no way, was deceiving the runner or gaining an advantage either way...I told the catcher to go tell his pitcher what he was doing, I told the coach on his way over to the 3B coaching box...no worries...in my opinion, don't over officiate by looking for the little things that can disrupt the flow of a baseball game. In the sitch above...this is a foul ball. leave it at that...make your call w/ authority, and move on. I guess I just don't feel there's a need to go looking for cheap balks...maybe in MLB...but I will never be an MLB umpire.
