correct...once you call time, we don't resume play until the pitcher has the ball and engages the rubber, if he engages w/o the ball, we have a balk.
The Evans Diamond Challenge DVD has the hidden ball trick example in the DVD...it's a good example too.

I am not sure on the balk call.
There has been a discussion brewing on another forum regarding this call. The consensus seems to be that this is a no-play, not a balk. Specifically, UIC cannot legally place the ball back in play until the pitcher has possession and engages. And with out the ball being in play no balk call can be made. No one has an advantage or a dis-advantage (no out made, no steal made). What say you?

C'mon. How do you have a balk if the ball is not in play? (Answer: you don't!) If he engages the rubber without the ball while the ball is dead all you've got is a dead ball - still. JM
