I am a catcher and have been for 12 years and have never heard of a balk on the catcher. The catcher is allowed to move around as much as possible as long as he does not get in the way of the batter attempting to hit a ball. But the catcher must be in the catcher's box unless it is an IBB or a PO. The balk is only allowed to be called on the pitcher when there is a runner on base. It must be a made up rule kind of like "the runner has the right away in the basepath."
