Balk Clarification under MLB Rules

Hello

I just need a clarification of the balk rule:

We have a runner on third base with a count of (3) balls & (2) strike on the batter with (1) out.

The pitcher balks buy not stepping off the rubber properly.
I know this is a balk and the runner from (3rd) base goes home.

Will this also result in a ball being called on the batter?

Thank you
