Best Answer

A balk in Baseball is a pitcher's illegal movement that deceives the baserunners. The umpire calls a balk when they see the pitcher make a deceptive move while on the pitching rubber, causing the baserunners to advance. The umpire signals a balk by pointing towards the pitcher and calling "balk" aloud.
