(And just to pre-empt the inevitable question about why throwing to a firstbaseman not near first base is a balk, when throwing to CF not near 2nd base is not...
The rule regarding 1st base is different, and says that if you step toward first base, you must throw toward first base (not the first baseman).
2nd and 3rd do not have that requirement.)
