I watched the replay of Gustave's balk 6 or 7 times... and I still don't see the balk, much less the home plate umpire's emphatic insistence that he did.
No leg flinch, no glove or hand flinch. Nothing.
Is anyone seeing something I'm missing?

It was a “pretty cut-and-dry” infraction, Dreckman added.
But when pushed further by a pool reporter, Dreckman said “when they start bringing their hands up, they can’t just bring them up and stop in mid-stroke of their pitching delivery.”

Huh. I still do not see what he saw.
Thanks, Reed

Yeah I didn't see his hands come up at all. He stepped off the rubber with his hands still by his waist, then the balk was called.

The thing is, Dreckman was so emphatic.
That's why I asked if anyone saw something I was missing.
