This would not be a balk even in FED? Trying to figure out why a balk was called in the game before mine. 18U (not sure of which rules), R3, F1 (RHP)brings his hand to his right hand with the ball together with his glove (stationary), then steps off with his right foot (no movement with his left foot). PU called a balk.
