Umpire Mark Buchanan is back to form making strange calls. If you recall, he's the umpire that Casey touched the bill of his cap resulting in an ejection and four-game suspension for Casey. Beavs went on to win the National Championship in 2018. That was a flat out balk. Why is that a strange call?

There certainly is a balk without runners on base.

Beavs went on to win the National Championship in 2018. That was a flat out balk. Why is that a strange call? It was strange cause there was no base runner. Batter was ready, in the box and even took a swing. I think its a judgement call thing for the ump to call it a ball but the batter was ready so it wasn't like he was being tricksy.
