Another Balk Question
Situation #1

Runner on second. Pitcher in stretch comes set. Runner breaks for third. WITHOUT stepping off pitchers plate, pitcher throws to third. Is this a balk for throwing to an unoccupied base, or not a balk because he is making a play on a runner? Last week, JV and Freshmen games on side by side fields, one set of umps called balk one set did not. Yes the same play happened in both games within minutes of each other!

Situation #2

Runner on third. Third baseman playing bunt defense ( 20 feet down line ) runner leads off to where third baseman is playing. Again without breaking contact, pitcher throws directly to third baseman. Is this a balk?
