Of course the umpire making the call Bob Davidson "balkin Bob".

Just wondering if it really was a balk as some of his calls are often questionable.

I don't have a problem with the calls at all, just for education purposes wanting to see what he did wrong.

The last balk was basic (see it in HS all the time), but the first one no one seemed to know what he did and the UIC did not explain it other than to say that it was an obvious balk.

Obvious to whom was my question... (g)

Thanks
