Saw one declare an illegal pitch with no runners on F1 as he slipped and stopped his delivery to home. He added a ball to the count.
In LL that is an illegal pitch - even with no runners on base and the penalty is just a ball on the batter. I believe there is no balk in LL. That doesn't start till the Junior League age.
