Runners may steal.


BALKS:

First Offense: Warning *see comment*
Second Offense: Balk is enforced


*Comment*: The umpire will make the “balk” call (which is a dead ball), state the reason why the call was made, then say that the next balk by that particular pitcher will be enforced.

IF runners on base and *first offense* is issued, runners will return to the base they occupied.
