Title: Optional

Text: A balk occurs when a pitcher makes an illegal motion on the mound that the umpire deems to be deceitful to the runner. As a result, any men on base are awarded the next base, and the pitch (if it was thrown in the first place) is waved off for a dead ball. Exactly what constitutes a balk is summed up in section 8 of the MLB rules, which describes a legal pitching delivery. Each paragraph will be a test.
