BTW...a catcher can balk. One instance: on an intentional walk, if the catcher steps out of the catcher box before the pitcher releases the ball, a balk can be called on the catcher.

"A balk is an illegal act by the pitcher ..."
The balk you refer to is on the pitcher for pitching when F2 is out of the catcher's box. IT's no different from F1 throwing to F3 not on the bag (nor in position to make a play). We don't call that "a balk on the first baseman."

Thanks Bob...you're right. I stand corrected.
