Jonathan Broxton, the closer for the Dodgers, has a pause in his stretch that I question. If any of you have seen him pitch, tell me what you think. I saw it for the first time tonight. I'm not going to lie, if i saw it in school ball, I might balk it.

Lots of things that are balks in HS are not (called) balks in MLB.

Conversely, lots of the little twitches that are let go in HS are called balks in MLB.

Haha. One of my High School ball games I didn't get away with any twitching.

Just that one umpire though. I was warned for probably the first 4 innings. I guess he finally got fed up and called me for a few balks. He said that everytime I tried to peek over to first, I moved my shoulders just the slightest bit.

Oh well.
