So we move all runners up 1 and award BR 1st?
On a balk, only the runners are moved up. What about B2 who's opportunity for a hit (bunt single) was taken away?
Obstruction awards the stealing runner and batter a base and others if forced, which seems to be a more advantageous penalty for the defenses error.
I didn't think NFHS used the term "catcher's balk"? I don't have my book
