    And I've never understood the "you can't argue a balk" rule for two reasons: 1) I just don't understand what it means... technically can't you not argue anything? 2) You should be able to at least be told what he did, and if so just put your say in for the umpire in case you think he missed the call. I guess though that a balk is just one of those calls that instead is not on-the-fly in the sense that it must be called as a result of the play only if observed, kind of like defensive obstruction or something. It can only be called if it is seen, therefore you'd presume they would not call it if it didn't happen. Maybe that's what the rule means.
    Furthermore, he called a balk on the fake to third look back at first move. Really? Even if it is a balk it never works and has pretty much no effect on the outcome of the at bat. Just let it go, Angel.

                Hosmer so far: 2 AB, 2 walks. Not too exciting, but I like it.

                  Jaime Garcia with 5 no-hit innings against Milwaukee right now.

                  And yes, I am just posting that in an attempt to jinx him.

                    Lee finished with 16 K's in 7 innings. The 3 runs he gave up were literally (I think) on no more than 6 pitches.

                        I'm falling in love with this Braves team. Scoring 5+ runs a game will be perfectly fine with me the rest of the season.

                          I think you're overreacting. 1st place... near top in BA in the NL. They're fine.

                            Great game for the Bravos...I like this winning thing. Looking forward to Julio's debut tomorrow.

                              I'm officially so angry I have a stomach ache.

                              7 perfect innings for Jaime.

                                Another win for the good guys.

                                Edit: and everybody here is listening to MLB at-bat of the STL/MIL game.
