After the Cubs finished playing tonight (well, they finished playing long before the game was over...but anyways) I flipped to check the score of the Sox game before shutting off the TV. I was watching Hawkins from the Twins pitch, and it wasn't until later that I started thinking about his delivery.

He went into the stretch, took his sign, then brought his hands together about chin level, with ball in hand. He paused long enough that if he were to pitch, I would not call a balk on the fact that he did not "set" prior to the pitch. However, he then brought both hands lower, to about chest level, in what to me seems like a second set. I was under the impression that a "double set" was a balk. While I don't have the rulebook on my at this time (I will check next chance I have near the rulebook), I was wondering if anyone else saw him pitching (or has seen him pitch) and what they thought about it.
