Balk rule w/runners on second & third, first base open

[Guest Oddjob]

If a pitcher balks w/runners on both second & third but first base open what is the result?

Both runners advance one base so R3 scores and R2 becomes R3.

If the ball was not put into play and no pitch or pickoff was thrown the ball is dead and R3 is awarded home and R2 is awarded 3B. Otherwise we we have to know what happened.

... and the batter remains at bat, and the pitch "doesn't count"  (mentioned since the OP mentioned first was open, so I think he's also wondering about the batter)

For the batter it is a “Do Over”

It might be a no pitch or it might not.

How can an enforced  balk not be a no pitch?

We don’t know what happened other than the pitcher balked.

On a balk, all runners (except the batter-runner) are entitled to advance one base. If the ball is delivered home, it is not normally a pitch; however it is a delayed dead ball, so if a play ensues in which all runners (including the batter-runner) advance safely one base (via base hit, walk, error, or anything else), play continues without reference to the balk. (At least in the MLB)
