Comments: “It’s still a balk”

[Balk Whisperer @balkwhisperer]

Joe is using the part of that Fan Rulebook that says “ if it looks odd it has to be a balk, right ?”

Legal.

@thestevenwoods Have pasted this too many times to count, but it's legit!

back edge of the pitcher’s rubber, he is required to pitch to the batter except to throw to second base on a pick-off play.

Ryan Thompson has been doing this exact move for years. Little bit of loophole for sidearmers…. Looks like a balk, should be a balk, but isn’t

“Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” - Psalm 37:4

I prayed for you long before I ever knew your name.

God didn’t just answer those prayers… He exceeded them in every single way!

Ephesians 3:20 - You are far more than I ever asked or imagined!

… and the easiest YES of my life.

Thank you JESUS for this love!

(PS - I love you, @R_Thompson15! Please don’t die before me! 🥲)
