Is that a balk because he does more than step off the rubber? The balk is the most confusing rule in the history of sports

Pretty sure it’s because he starts his wind up and then steps off with no pause. I don’t know if what he did there is a whole lot different than when lefties use their pickoff move though

dropped his hands before stepping off. Once set, any movement other than the back foot stepping is committing to going home.

Rizzo headed down to the clubhouse and confronted Kelley, according to people familiar with the situation. The argument became heated, including raised voices, and eventually it almost became physical, according to people familiar with the exchange. Adam Eaton got between the two of them and separated them before things could advance further, but Rizzo’s frustration was not isolated.

 

Scherzer and Madson also faced up Kelley that night to express their disapproval of the outburst. Not long after, Rizzo told Kelley he would be designating him for assignment, then issued his “if you’re not in, you’re in the way” proclamation to reporters the next day.

On the Sunday night game against the Cubs, the ESPN game booth was singing the praises of Rizzo. Go figure.
