Mark,
The non-calls were all correct - no way to have a balk on a dead ball. Had the PU put the ball into play thinking F1 was in contact it would STILL not be a balk, as the ball could not have legally been made live. Intent is exactly the same in all rule code (OBR, FED & NCAA). The actual location of F1 in relation to the rubber (Pitchers plate) may differer slightly (On or astride vs within 5ft, etc) but all have three requirements for a balk to be called: 1. Live ball 2. Runner(s) on base 3. F1 is on or astride the rubber without the ball |
