Talking

think of it this way. almost all pitchers will have one way to take signs from the stretch, and one way to come set. knowing that...once the pitcher is in his normal position/stance to take signs and he begins to go to into his set position to pitch he must continue or step off the rubber. for example. some pitchers like to lean really far towards the plate to take signs and then stand almost straight up to come set before throwing. if the pitcher begins to straighten up as if to come set and the stops...that's a balk. deception...the whole premise for calling a balk. same thing applies with the hands. hopes this helps.
