During a Pony league game yesterday my pitcher, while well into his motion (i.e. knee high, shoulders counter rotated was pulling the ball part way out of the glove and then tapping it back into the glove to initiate hand break. Opposing coach claimed it was a balk. Umpire said it wasn't. I didn't know for sure so I kept my mouth shut.
Is it a balk? If so I'll have to correct the motion.
