If This Play Comes Up
HERE'S YOUR DECISION

Whenever an umpire calls a balk
play is automatically suspended. All
base runners are entitled to advance
one base. often the umpire calls a
balk on the pitcher for some infrac-
ton of the rules, only to have the
pitcher throw the ball to the bats
man, and have him swing at it. No
attention should be given any play
that might arise. The calling of the
balk suspended play, and the action
of the pitcher in delivering the ball
and the batter swinging at It should
be given no consideration. The only
action possible after the calling of
the ballk is for all base runners to
advance one base. Just remember
the moment the umpire rules balk
that any further play Immediately
becomes impossible.
