Tim Tschida's Michael Jackson Tribute

Has to be SEEN to be believed:

At least he got his point across!

Compare to this one by Culbreth

And sorry in advance if this was posted before.....

Don't apologize for a great laugh.

I love Tim Tschida. He is an old-fashioned gas. He's like the heir to Pulli.

Exactly what the commentator said (strangely enough). He stepped forward off the rubber. He has to either step directly to the base, or step backward off the rubber.

I thought Tschida demonstrated it rather fully.

I thought he stepped back first. :shrug:

In the other video, Sanchez was busted and knew it.

He first stepped off the rubber but then acted as if he was stepping home, feigning an attempt to pitch.

After looking at it closely and stopping the video, he did step back off the rubber.

His hands don't move much, and from what I saw he had a tiny step toward home. That's pretty thin soup.

I think that it's more likely that Tschida missed the step off than that he ruled a tiny step toward home constituted simulating a pitch. F1's hands never even came together!

He was demonstrating to the pitcher what he did to cause a balk, or he was trying out for Dancing with the Stars. Take your pick.

the first video is not a balk, the pitcher properly stepped off the rubber, the second one is a balk.
