Balk w/hit batsman
 

So with a runner on third and the pitcher balks immediately before hitting the batter, where does R3 go? Where does batter go?

If R3 did not advance home on the play, you enforce the balk and ignore the pitch. The batter is still up with the same count as before.

You need to also highlight "and all other runners advance at least one base"

This didn't happen so you now enforce the balk. R3 scores. Batter reeturns to the plate with the sane count as before the pitch/balk.

Thanks.
So the same would be true if the batter got an infield hit but the runner/runners were not able to advance. Move runners 1 base,..send batter (with sore ribs) back to the box?

Also if R3 stays put but R1 advanced on an infield hit, since ALL runners did not advance... then no pitch, runners advance 1, Batter up with same count?

Correct. Note that there is no "option" either. If the batter and all runners do not safely advance one base, the balk must be enforced.

Yes and yes. (Why would the batter have sore ribs from an infield hit?)

Sorry, still thinking of the hit batsman.

He got nailed on the previous pitch.:D

Here's one along the same lines (sort of).

R2, R3. Less than two out. Non-FED.

F1 balks but delivers a pitch. F2 interferes with the batter's swing but he hits one toward the gap. F8 makes a spectacular diving catch at the fence. Both runners tag and score.

A. The ball is dead on the catch. Enforce the balk.
B. The coach can take the result of the play.
C. Enforce the CI. Bases loaded (although if this were correct, then answer B would be as well).

And for those who are keeping score at home (you really should get a life), under NFHS Rules the balk makes the ball dead immediately and the balk is penalized.

It was a non-FED question.

I know, but there are quite a few states that use NFHS Rules for their H.S. competition, and the OP is not an uncommon play in H.S. baseball.

There is only one question that ever has to be asked (and it has been expressed in previous posts): Did all base runners AND the BR advance at least one base on the play? Uh, nope - Balk - (A)
