As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, number 32 on the Chicago Cubs is worn by pitcher Marcus Stroman. He joined the Cubs prior to the 2022 season and has been a key player for the team since then. For the most current information, please check the latest Cubs roster or news updates.
There is only one call for a balk. When a pitcher is in the stretch and a runner or runners are on base, the pitcher must pause before throwing to homeplate. There can also be a balk called on the pitcher if he makes a move to throw out someone at first base, but doesn't actually throw the ball. (No fake throws to first allowed!) The last reason for a balk to be called is if a pitcher begins to move his front leg towards homeplate, but does not throw the ball to home. (Or simply pitch to the batter). A balk results in baserunners advancing one base.
The Cubs last won the NL Central Division in 2008.
